It includes a method by which the heat, lot,testing, and certification requirements that are essential to so many of today

4、s welding applications can be specified inthe procurement document. This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System ofUnits (SI). Since these are not equivalent, each system must be used independently of the other.iiAWS A5.01M/A5.01:2013 (ISO 14344:2010 MOD)ISB

8、ions, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National Standards are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents that are inclu

9、ded in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other govern-mental bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWSstandards must be approved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can bec

10、ome a part ofthose laws and regulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other documentthat invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirementsof an AWS standard must be by agreement between

11、 the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. While AWS administers theprocess and establishes rules to promote fairness in the

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 A5 Committee on Filler Metals and Allied Materials. It m

22、ustbe reviewed every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations,additions, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required and shouldbe addressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive

23、careful consideration by the AWS A5 Committee onFiller Metals and Allied Materials and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committees response to thecomments. Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS A5 Committee on Filler Metals and Allied Materialsto express their commen

35、ty will establish that the entire quantity meets specificationrequirements. These quantities, known by such terms as heats, lots, blends, batches, and mixes, vary in sizeaccording to the manufacturer. For identification purposes, each manufacturer assigns a unique designationto each quantity. This d

36、esignation usually consists of a series of numbers or letters, or combinations thereof,which will enable the manufacturer to determine the date and time (or shift) of manufacture, the raw materialsused, and the details of the procedures used in producing the welding consumable. This designation stay

37、swith the welding consumable and can be used to identify the material later, in those cases in whichidentification is necessary.For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions describing discrete quantities of the componentsused in the manufacturing of welding consumables apply.3.1 Dry

38、BatchThe quantity of dry ingredients mixed at one time in one mixing vessel.NOTE: Liquid(s), such as binders, when added to a dry batch, produce a wet mix. A dry batch may be divided intohomogeneous smaller quantities, in which case addition of the liquid(s) produces a corresponding number of smalle

39、r wetmixes.3.2 Dry BlendTwo or more dry batches from which quantities of each are combined proportionately, then mixed in a mixingvessel to produce a larger quantity in which the ingredients are as uniformly dispersed as they would havebeen had the entire quantity been mixed together at one time in

40、one large mixer.NOTE: A dry blend, as in the case of a dry batch, may be used singly or divided into smaller quantities, in which caseaddition of liquid(s) produces a corresponding number of smaller wet mixes.3.3 Wet MixThe combination of liquid(s) and a dry batch, dry blend, or a portion thereof, m

41、ixed at one time in one mixingvessel.3.4 HeatFor fully metallic consumables, or the fully metallic rod, tube or strip used to fabricate tubular cored or coveredelectrodes the following apply. The specific definition is dependent on the method of melting and refining ofthe metal:3.4.1 The material ob

42、tained from one furnace melt, where slag-metal or gas-metal reactions occur inproducing the specified alloy (e.g., open hearth, electric arc, basic oxygen, argon-oxygen processes). Millsplicing of coils from different heats is not permitted, and coils containing transition heats may not beclassified

43、 in this manner.3.4.2 An uninterrupted series of melts from one controlled batch of metals and alloying ingredients in onemelting furnace under the same melting conditions, each melt conforming to the chemical composition rangeapproved by the purchaser of the material (i.e., the producer of the weld

44、ing consumable) where significantchemical reactions do not occur in producing the specified alloy (e.g., induction melting in a controlledatmosphere or in a vacuum).3.4.3 An uninterrupted series of remelts in one furnace under the same remelting conditions using one ormore consumable electrodes prod

45、uced from a single heat, each remelt conforming to the chemicalcomposition range approved by the purchaser of the material (i.e., the producer of the welding consumable)in processes involving continuous melting and casting (e.g., consumable electrode remelt).AWS A5.01M/A5.01:2013 (ISO 14344:2010 MOD

46、)33.5 Controlled Chemical Composition3.5.1 Covering or core ingredients consisting of one or more wet mixes, dry batches, or dry blends that aresubjected to sufficient tests to assure that all within the lot are equivalent. These tests shall include chemicalanalysis, the results of which shall fall

47、within the manufacturers acceptance limits. The identification of thetest procedure and the results of the tests shall be recorded.3.5.2 Fully metallic consumables, or the fully metallic rod, tube, or strip used to fabricate tubular cored orcovered electrodes that consist of mill coils of one or mor

48、e heats from which samples have been taken forchemical analysis and validated as described in this clause. Mill coils from mills that do not permit spliced-coilpractice need to be sampled only on one end. Coils from mills that permit spliced-coil practice with amaximum of one splice per coil need to

49、 be sampled on both ends. Coils with more than one splice are notpermitted under this definition. The results of the analysis of each sample shall be recorded and be within themanufacturers composition limits for that material.3.6 LotA unique identifying designation for a specific type and quantity of welding consumable, usually beginningwith the word “lot” and followed by a series of numbers and/or letters. The lot class, as identified in Clause 4,details the requirements for grouping consumables into a single lot.3.7 Production ScheduleA manufacturing campaign of a single lot nu
