CSA W48 - 2018 - Filler Metals and Allied Materials for Metal Arc Welding PDF

This Standard specifies requirements for the classification and certification of

1. carbon steel covered electrodes for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW);
2. chromium and chromium-nickel steel covered electrodes for SMAW, including electrodes designated for welding heat-resistant steels containing more than 11% chromium and less than 50% nickel, as specified in Clause 1.2;
3. low alloy steel covered electrodes for SMAW;
4. wire electrodes and deposits for gas-shielded metal arc welding (GMAW) of non-alloy and fine- grain steels, as specified in Clause 1.3;
5. wire electrodes, rods, and deposits for GMAW, gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), and submerged arc welding (SAW) of chromium and chromium-nickel steel, as specified in Clause 1.4
6. wire rods and deposits for GTAW and plasma arc welding (PAW) of carbon and low alloy steels, as specified in Clause 1.5;
7. carbon and low alloy steel electrodes for flux-cored arc welding (FCAW) and metal-cored arc welding (MCAW), as specified in Clause 1.6;
8. chromium and chromium-nickel steel electrodes for FCAW and MCAW, as specified in Clause 1.7;
9. fluxes and solid carbon steel electrodes for SAW; and
10. fluxes and composite carbon steel electrodes for SAW.
