FlareBevel Weld Tube to a Plate

FlareBevel Weld Tube to a Plate

FlareBevel Weld Tube to a Plate

(OP)
Can someone point me in the direction to determine the weld size, and effective throat to weld a tube to a plate for this to develop a moment. Tube is roughly 2" dia HSS and plate is likely 3/8". The condition is for a guardrail. Thanks

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

dik,

See JAE's comment on this thread. The situation is similar, though not identical. Link

RE: FlareBevel Weld Tube to a Plate

Here is a document for your use. Pay attention to page 33 and after. Link

So it's a matter of speccing a throat thickness... something like 1/4" or something like that... the weld strength is then treated like a normal fillet weld with that throat size?

Yes. Just make sure how to measure and specify the throat dimension, then it is treated as fillet weld.

White Paper - Addressing Tooling and Casting Requirements at the Design Stage
Several of the tooling and casting requirements of a part can be addressed at the design stage. If these requirements are not addressed at the design stage, lot of time is spent in design iteration when the design reaches the die caster. These design issues lead to increase in time and cost of production leading to delay in time to market and reduced profits for the organization. Download Now
