Weldability of dissimilar steels
Weldability of dissimilar steels
(OP)
Hi,
I was wondering if someone could offer some advice on welding two dissimilar steels together and the possibilty of the process. Basically I have a component made from E460N mechanical tube and I need a steel of similar yield that can be welded to the tube. Due to the in service conditions I was wondering if it would be posdible to weld EN24t to the E460 and provide a weld which is at least as strong as the lesser base material.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the response. I was looking to use the EN24 in the T condition. My understanding is that stainless fillers may be used to help reduce hydrogen cracking. Is this likely to be the best approach?
Thanks
