Abstract
This standard contains the essential welding variables for welding austenitic stainless steel in the thickness range of 18
through 10 gauge, using semiautomatic gas metal arc welding (short circuiting transfer mode). It cites the base metals
and operating conditions necessary to make the weldment, the filler metal specifications, and the allowable joint designs
for fillet welds and groove welds.

may be rendered. However, such opinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them.
These individuals do not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or inter-
pretations of AWS. In addition, oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official interpretation.
This standard is subject to revision at any time by the AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification. It must be reviewed
every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reapproved or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations, additions,
or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required and should be addressed to
AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualifi-
cation and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committee’s response to the comments. Guests are invited
to attend all meetings of the AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification to express their comments verbally. Proce-
dures for appeal of an adverse decision concerning all such comments are provided in the Rules of Operation of the

Foreword
(This Foreword is not a part of AWS B2.1-8-005:2002, Standard Welding Procedure Specification (SWPS) for
Gas Metal Arc Welding (Short Circuiting Transfer Mode) of Austenitic Stainless Steel (M-8, P-8, or S-8), 18 through
10 Gauge, in the As-Welded Condition, with or without Backing, but is included for informational purposes only.)
The American Welding Society and the Welding Research Council have joined in a cooperative effort to generate
standard welding procedures for industry. The need for pretested welding procedures that are supported by adequate test
data and that satisfy the technical requirements for the commonly used construction codes and specifications has been
expressed by many individuals and organizations. The purpose of a welding procedure qualification is to provide test
data for assessing the properties of a weld joint.
This Standard Welding Procedure Specification is an outgrowth of the coordinated work of the Welding Procedures
Committee of WRC and the Committee on Welding Qualification of the AWS. The Welding Procedures Committee has
provided the test data documented on the Summary of Procedure Qualification Records, which are available from the
Welding Research Council.
The welding terms used in this specification shall be interpreted in accordance with the definitions given in the latest
edition of AWS A3.0, Standard Welding Terms and Definitions. Welding symbols shall be those shown in the latest edition
of AWS A2.4, Standard Symbols for Welding, Brazing, and Nondestructive Examination.
The AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification was formed in 1979 to provide welding standards concerning the
subject of qualification. The primary document developed by this committee is AWS B2.1, Standard for Welding Procedure
and Performance Qualification. This document established the foundation and framework for Standard Welding Procedure
Specifications.
The first two Standard Welding Procedure Specifications were published in 1990. Since then SWPSs are continuing
to be developed and published by the American Welding Society. This is the first revision of B2.1.005.
Comments and suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcomed. They should be sent to the Secretary,
AWS B2 Committee on Welding Qualification, American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126.

HeAC-7.5/2.5
Composition: 90% Helium, 7-1/2% Argon, 2-1/2% Carbon Dioxide
Flow Rate: 25 to 40 ft3/hr

Backing/Root Shielding Gas: Welding Grade Argon or AWS A5.32, SG-A. Gas shall remain in
place until the joint is completed. When introducing shielding gas to
initiate a purge; it is necessary to have at least a 6 volume change
of atmosphere within the purge zone prior to welding. It is not nec-
essary to shield the root of fillet welds or groove welds with backing
or back gouging.
Flow Rate: A typical flow range of 5 to 15 ft3/h may be varied depending on
component configuration.
Trailing Gas: None

*Any 300 series filler metal conforming to A No. 8 may be selected to meet the strength requirements; however, corrosion
requirements may dictate the specific selection.
