ASM metals handbook

ASM metals handbook

(OP)
I am interested in a reference book that would contain information about the weldability, chacteristics, service applications and general information on a variety of metals.  I have been wondering about the ASM Metals Handbook Desk Edition Second Edition.  I would greatly appreciate any input on this handbook.  Thank you very much for your time.

RE: ASM metals handbook

There is no better source of information on matels-related topics, welding included, than ASM and the handbooks they publish. ( I have no connection ) There are specialized groups who are quite knowedgable in welding who you could find through google.com and other search engines. i like the ASM because they have been for knowledge instead of profit.

RE: ASM metals handbook

I concur with mcguire - ASM International is a fantastic organization, and their publications contain great information.  If you are interested in welding specifically, you may find ASM Handbook Volume 6: Welding, Brazing and Soldering to be more helpful than the more general Desk Edition.  You can find more information at:

RE: ASM metals handbook

Just a note.  ASM members have access to the Metals Handbook and the Engineered Materials Handbook online.  (Both great books!)  And membership is cheaper than buying 1 of the books.
