All,
Please advise if I am interpreting 3.6 in 2007 D1.6 correctly. It is saying that a SAW weld can be prequalified if a manufacturer has its flux paired with an electrode as long as I perform the 3 steps listed? If the manufacturer does not pair a flux with an electrode then I need to perform a test per Clause 4?

Thanks!
