Customer Assistance Policy

The business of The Lincoln Electric Company is manufacturing and selling high quality welding equipment, consum-

ables, and cutting equipment. Our challenge is to meet the needs of our customers and to exceed their expectations.

On occasion, purchasers may ask Lincoln Electric for advice or information about their use of our products. We

respond to our customers based on the best information in our possession at that time. Lincoln Electric is not in a

posit ion to warrant or guarantee such advice, and assumes no liability, with respect to such information or advice. We

expressly disclaim any warranty of any kind, including any warranty of fitness for any customers particular purpose,

with respect to such information or advice. As a matter of practical consideration, we also cannot assume any

responsibility for updating or correct ing any such information or advice once it has been given, nor does the provision

of information or advice create, expand or alter any warranty with respect to the sale of our products.

Lincoln Electric is a responsive manufacturer, but the selection and use of specific products sold by Lincoln Electric is

solely within the control of, and remains the sole responsibility of the customer. Many variables beyond the cont rol of

Lincoln Electric affect the results obtained in applying this type of fabrication methods and service requirements.

The serviceability of a product or structure utilizing these suggested consumables is and must be the sole responsibility of the builder/user. Many

factors must be taken into consideration when a filler metal is selected for a specific application. These factors include, but are not limited to, the

type of steel, type of weld, loading on the welded joint, applicable codes, level of preheat, level of restraint, position of welding, condition of the

steel, and service conditions. This guide provides matching strength filler metal options -- see discussion about undermatching below. The prima-

ry focus of these suggestions is based upon the yield and tensile strength properties of the weld deposit as compared to the base metal yield and

tensile strength properties. These suggested products may not meet all code or application requirements. Suggested filler metals may not always

meet Charpy V-Notch (CVN) application requirements --reference comments below on CVN's.

Reference is made to ASTM and API specifications and classifications and the requisite properties specified in those documents. These specifica-

tions are subject to change, and the user should consult the latest version of these documents to ensure that these descriptions are up-to-date.

These filler metal suggestions "match" the base metal properties; that is, the yield and tensile strength are expected to meet or exceed the mini-

mum specified properties of the steel. Matching filler metal is typically required for complete joint penetration groove welds in tension. However, fil-

let welds loaded in shear seldom require matching filler metal. Depending on the type of weld joint and loading, lower filler metal strengths may be

acceptable or desirable for specific designs. Also, codes, specifications, or contract documents may require specific mechanical properties that

these recommendations do not meet. In those cases, electrode selection should be limited to those products that meet the specific application

requirements. Suggested electrodes in this Selector Guide include those that have deposit weld metal with different levels of diffusible hydrogen.

High levels of hydrogen can cause weld metal and base metal cracking. The permissible level of hydrogen in a weld deposit is dependent on

many factors, including preheat and interpass temperatures intended to be used. The user of this information must make certain that, for the

suggested electrode that is selected, the preheat and interpass temperatures will be proper for the application. Suggested filler metals in this

Selector Guide do not always consider notch toughness (example Charpy V-Notch properties) requirements. Not all welding products are required

to have minimum specified levels of notch toughness. If code, specifications, or contract documents require notch toughness, electrode selection

should be limited to those products that meet the specific application requirements

D ue to space consideration, these technical supporting notes are listed here. Each is tied to a code used in the body of the tables w hich com prise the

rem ainder of this book. The notes and codes are listed below and m ay be used t reference additional inform ation regarding recom m ended Lincoln

consum ables for each applications. Please be sure to use the notes as an aid in selecting Lincoln consum ables.

SMAW(1) Any E70X8 electrode m ay be used. Excalibur 7018, Jet-LH 78,

Excalibur 7018-1, and Jetw eld LH -75 are p referred over Jetw eld

LH -70 for m ost pipe and out-of-position w elding. Jetw eld

LH -3800 can be used in place of E7018s for flat and horizontalfillet, lap, and flat butt w elds.

(2) Alm ost any E60XX or E70XX electrodes can be used. First,

select electrode based on the joint requirem ents. If code,

specifications, or contract docum ents require notch toughness

electrode selection should be lim ited to those that m eet the

specific application requirem ents.

(3) Alm ost any E70XX electrode can be used . First, select electrode

based on the joint requirem ents. If code, specifications, or

contract docum ents require notch toughness, electrod e

selection should be lim ited to those that m eet the specific

application requirem ents.

(9) U se Jet-LH -8018-C1, Excalibur 7018-1, or Jetw eld LH -75 w hen

high im pact prop erties (C VN ) dow n to -75 F are required.(28) U se of Shield-Arc 90 should be lim ited to 3/8m axim um w all

thickness.

SAW(10) For single pass applications, any flux/w ire com bination m eeting an

AW S F7AX classification per AW S specification A5.17 m ay be

used. Typically, for single p ass ap plications, active fluxes such as

760, 761, 780 and 781 are recom m ended. 860, 865, 960 and 980

fluxes m ay also be suitable for single pass applications. The follow -

ing flux/w ire com binatins are classified und er A5.17 and are rec-

om m ended: 760/L-50, 760/L-61, 761/L-60, 761/-L61, 780/L-60,
