8、American Welding Society StandardsAll standards (codes, specifications, recommended practices, methods, classifications, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institut

9、e (ANSI). When AWS American National Standards are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents that are included 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 change

10、s in those AWSstandards must be approved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can become 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 contrac

11、tual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirementsof an AWS standard must be by agreement between the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints an

12、d interests to achieve consensus. While the AWS administers theprocess and establishes rules to promote fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test, evalu-ate, or verify the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.AWS disc

13、laims liability for any injury to persons or to property, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, whetherspecial, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or relianceon this standard. AWS also makes no guarantee or warranty as to the

14、 accuracy or completeness of any informationpublished herein.In issuing and making this standard available, AWS is neither undertaking to render professional or other services for oron behalf of any person or entity, nor is AWS undertaking to perform any duty owed by any person or entity to someonee

15、lse. Anyone using these documents should rely on his or her own independent judgment or, as appropriate, seek theadvice of a competent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances. It isassumed that the use of this standard and its provisions are entrusted t

16、o appropriately qualified and competent personnel.This standard may be superseded by the issuance of new editions. Users should ensure that they have the latest edition.Publication of this standard does not authorize infringement of any patent or trade name. Users of this standard acceptany and all

17、liabilities for infringement of any patent or trade name items. AWS disclaims liability for the infringement ofany patent or product trade name resulting from the use of this standard.Finally, the AWS does not monitor, police, or enforce compliance with this standard, nor does it have the power to d

18、o so.On occasion, text, tables, or figures are printed incorrectly, constituting errata. Such errata, when discovered, are postedon the AWS web page (www.aws.org).Official interpretations of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to t

19、he appropriate technical committee. Such requests should be addressed to the American Welding Society,Attention: Managing Director, Technical Services Division, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126 (see Annex B).With regard to technical inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinions on AWS

20、 standards may be rendered.These opinions are offered solely as a convenience to users of this standard, and they do not constitute professionaladvice. Such opinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them. These individualsdo not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do

21、 these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or interpretations ofAWS. 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

22、 Materials. It mustbe reviewed every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommenda-tions, additions, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are requiredand should be addressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comm

23、ents will receive careful consideration by the AWS A5Committee on Filler Metals and Allied Materials and the author of the comments will be informed of the Committeesresponse to the comments. Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS A5 Committee on Filler Metals andAllied Materials to ex

24、press their comments verbally. Procedures for appeal of an adverse decision concerning all suchcomments are provided in the Rules of Operation of the Technical Activities Committee. A copy of these Rules can beobtained from the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126.This pa

38、is specification prescribes the requirements for the classification of bare electrodes and rods for surfacing. Thespecification does not provide for classification of electrode-flux combinations for submerged arc welding.1.2 Safety and health issues and concerns are beyond the scope of this standard

39、 and, therefore, are not fully addressedherein. Some safety and health information can be found in the nonmandatory annex Clauses A5 and A10. Safety andhealth information is available from other sources, including, but not limited to, ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting,and Allied Processes,1and

40、applicable federal and state regulations.1.3 This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the International System of Units (SI). The measure-ments are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other without combining inany way when referring to

41、 material. The specification with the designation A5.21 uses U.S. Customary Units. The speci-fication A5.21M uses SI Units. The latter are shown within brackets or in appropriate columns in tables and figures.Standard dimensions based on either system may be used for sizing of filler metal or packag

42、ing or both under A5.21 orA5.21M specifications.2. Referenced DocumentsThe following documents are referenced within this publication.
