This welding procedure specification is for a single V-groove joint with backing for piping made of P45 Alloy 20. The joint will be prepared by machining or grinding. Gas tungsten arc welding will be used with argon shielding gas in the manual mode for an uphill progression. Multiple passes will be done with initial cleaning by grinding and brushing and interpass cleaning of grinding and brushing with a stainless steel brush.
