Title: A STUDY OF FISSURING IN INCONEL WELDS MADE BY THE METAL INERT GAS SHIELDED ARC WELDING PROCESS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4139515

S>A series of single-bead MlG and TlG Inconel welds was made by the inert gas shielded arc welding process with widely varying heat inputs (in joules per inch), interpass temperatures, and weaving techniques to determine the major factor in weld-metal fissuring. It was found that by using a weaving technique with the M1G process, fissuring can be substantially reduced or eliminated. (C.J.G.)
