Sep 10, 2007 Thread starter #4 croy Mechanical Joined Oct 18, 2002 Messages 11 Location US We have never done a Sec. IX hot-wire GTAW WPS before, that's why I'm asking. Since the WPS's will have impact testing, I'm assuming that the hot-wire heat input contribution must be accounted for, no? Upvote 0 Downvote
