Process performance and welding performance of ASTM A213 T5 steel
(1) The 5 carbon equivalent is:
m(C) Electricity (T5)=1.58%>0.60%. According to the calculation results, T5 steel has a high tendency to harden, which is a difficult-to-weld material and requires strict process measures such as higher preheating temperature.
(2) Poor welding performance. Due to the tendency of void quenching, the weld and heat-affected zone after welding have high hardness and poor plasticity. Preheat to 250-350℃ before welding. When using chlorine arc welding, the lower limit of preheating temperature can be reduced by 50℃. After welding, cool slowly, avoid cooling to room temperature as much as possible, and go through high temperature tempering at 750-780℃ to improve the mechanical properties of welded joints.
 

Groove processing of ASTM A213 T5 seamless steel pipe
(1) Since ASTM A213 T5 seamless steel pipes have a strong tendency to harden, the groove should be processed by machining, and the hardened layer at 20mm on the surface and edge of the groove must be polished clean.
(2) The groove form is shown in the figure.
