A General Requirements

Final weld overlay surface ( Machined surface as applicable) shall have

the chemical composition as required and checked prior to final PWHT or SAES-W-014,
A1
Para. 6.4
hydrotest.

Final weld overlay surface shall have the chemical composition checked
using :
A) Physical sample (drillings) removed for quantitative analysis OR
SAES-W-014,
A2 B) Portable spectrograph. With the specific approval of SA Insp, a
Para. 6.4
portable X-ray fluorescence machine may be used instead of a
spectrograph.All elements specified for deposit chemistry shall be
analyzed and reported, except for carbon when using the X-ray
fluorescence method.

Inspection has reviewed and approved chemical composition analysis

SAES-W-014,
A3 method & accuracy limits for each element.
Para. 6.4

B Extent of Testing
Automatic Welding:
One analysis for each overlay area or clad joint. Separate SAES-W-014,
B1 analyses shall be made for each heat/batch* of filler metal or electrode. Para. 6.5

Manual Welding (2 possible applications):

A) One analysis for each 1 m sq. of
SAES-W-014,
B2 area OR B) One analysis at intervals of 2 m
Para. 6.5
or less for overlay restoration of clad joints.

For service temps below 427°C, chemical analysis results shall be used
to calculate the ferrite content using the DeLong diagram.
SAES-W-014,
If calculated ferrite content is not between 3 & 10 FN, then:
Para. 6.6
B3 A) Utilize SAIC-W-2030 & SATR-W-2016
B) Take ferrite measurements on overlay welds.
(SAIC-W-2030)
C) Measured Ferrite Number shall be between
3 & 10 FN.

C TEST RESULTS

Following elements shall be analyzed for the deposit chemistry of SS &

Nickel-based alloy weld metal overlays:
C, Ni, Cr, Cu, Mo, Mn, Fe, plus (Ti, Nb, Cb)*,

C1
(* Ti, Nb & Cb are used in stabilized SS) SAES-W-014,
For overlay matls other than those listed above, Para. 5.6
elements to be analyzed shall be specified by CSD.
Note: Inspection shall review and approve the chemical composition
analysis method & accuracy limits for each element. (SAES-W-14 Para
4.6)

For welding procedure qualification, the chemistry of the overlay shall be

measured at 1.5 mm below the minimum specified overlay thickness. This
is regardless of the thickness of the as-welded deposited thickness in the SAES-W-014,
C2
procedure qualification. Inconel Alloy N06625 overlays shall have a Para. 5.7
maximum iron content of 10%. Monel overlays shall have a maximum iron
content of 4.5%.
