Welding CS to SS Materials
Welding CS to SS Materials
(OP)
Hi friends,
Can any body help me about that if joining carbon steel to stainless steel material is acceptable as per code SECTION 8 and B31.3 or not?
If yes or no which part of the code can I find the evidence.
Thank you very much for your guide.

This is common even in corrosion sensitive environments, however these welds need to to be protected.

As far as the mechanical integrity of such welds, if the weld procedure and filler metal are selected properly and all the other requirements of ASME IX as well as any additional local requirements you may have, you are good to go..

It should also be noted that, at welded piping joints where CS joins SS there is a stress concentration whenever there is a thermal transient event.
The expansion coefficient for these materials is significantly different.
