    Fillet welding is used for joining pieces or plates at angles between 0 and 180 degrees by producing corner, T, and overlap joints, which make up around 80% of all electric arc welded joints. While fillet welding is very common, special attention must be paid to parameters like heat transfer rate and penetration due to higher heat requirements compared to other joints, as inexperience can lead to hard to detect defects or excessive welding without improving strength. Standards provide details on fillet welding procedures and precautions.

    Fillet Welding

    Description Fillet welding is a type of joint used for welding pieces or plates in which the angle between them varies from 0 (zero) to 180 degrees.

    Aplication Fields This type of joint is used mainly to produce corner, T and overlap joints. Is estimated that around 80% of all joints made by electric arc welding are from this type.

    Quality Although this is a very common procedure, theres a number of parameters to which are necessary to take in special attention before doing such a welding, because among others, it requires a higher heat transfer rate when compared to other types of joints to an equivalent thickness, and with less experience welders, this could take to the lack of penetration and/or fusion defects that are not easily identifiable through visual inspection or other non-destructive techniques, or even excessive welding which will lead to extra spending of consumable materials, even without achieving a higher global resistance. Fillet Welding details: Consultation of standards such as EN ISO 9692 series, EN 1708 series, EN 1011, will give you a very good hints about fillet welding details and precautions to have.
