Welding 5% Chrome
Welding 5% Chrome
(OP)
We have been welding 5% chrome 0.5% molybdenum (P num. 5C) with ER502 and E502. I understand that these are the earlier classifications of the welding materials. I have noticed that the filler wire (ER502, E502) is easier to cut and bend than the 1 1/4 percent chrome welding materials (ER80SB2). It is softer than the welding materials containing lower chrome contents. I would have thought that a material containing more chrome would be harder to cut and not as ductile as one containing less chrome. Anyone have any experience with these materials?

Haven't noticed about the hardness/ductility of these wires as compared to the 1 1/4 Cr 1/2 Mo varieties though!
