4、electrodes and rods, compositestranded carbon steel electrodes, and composite metal cored carbon steel electrodes for gas shielded arc welding. Classi-fication is based on chemical composition of the electrode for solid electrodes and rods, chemical composition of weldmetal for composite stranded an

5、d composite metal cored electrodes and the as-welded mechanical properties of the weldmetal for each. Additional requirements are included for manufacture, sizes, lengths, and packaging. A guide is appendedto the specification as a source of information concerning the classification system employed

6、and the intended use of theelectrodes and rods.This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System of Units (SI). Since theseunits are not equivalent, each system must be used independently of the other.Key WordsCarbon steel welding electrodes, carbon steel welding

When AWS standards are either incorporated in, or made part of,documents that are included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other governmental bodies,their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such ca

10、ses, any changes in those AWS standards must beapproved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can become a part of those laws andregulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other document that invokes theAWS standards. Whe

11、re this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirements of an AWSstandard must be by agreement between the contracting parties.International Standard Book Number: 0-87171-014-5American Welding Society, 550 N.W.
