Short symbol for manual arc welding |
| 2 |
Short name for chemical structure of weld metal. The alloy components (approximate values) are listed in the order Cr, Ni, Mo numerically one after the other without their chemical symbol. Alloy components like niob, mangan, nitrogen and copper are added as chemical symbol without specification of their contents. The addition L indicates a very low carbon content. In addition to the alloy structure, the mechanical properties laid down in the standards have to be achieved.
