Lincoln Electric C2.410 manual Stick Electrode Typical Operating Procedures, Out-of-Position Group

Minimum Preheat and Interpass Temperature(1) Continued

For stick electrode welding only

Based on AWS Specification D1.1

Notes

(1)Welding shall not be done when ambient temp. is lower than 0ºF. Parts on which metal is being deposited shall be at or above the specified temperature for a distance equal to the thickness of the part being welded, but not less than 3”, in all directions from the point of welding. Preheat and interpass temperature must be sufficient to prevent cracking. Temperature above the minimum may be required for highly restrained welds. For ASTM A709 Grade 70W and ASTM A852 Grade 70, the maximum preheat and interpass tem- perature shall not exceed 400ºF for thicknesses thru 1-1/2”, and 450ºF for greater thicknesses.

(2)When the base metal temperature is below 32ºF, preheat to at least 70ºF and maintain this minimum temperature during welding.

Stick Electrode Typical Operating Procedures

“Out-of-Position” Group

All-purpose stick electrodes for general purpose fabrication and maintenance weld- ing. Capable of x-ray quality welds out-of-position. Particularly good for vertical and overhead. Deep penetration with maximum admixture. Light slag and flat beads with distinctive ripples.
