Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels - Classification

ISO 3581:2016 specifies requirements for classification of covered electrodes, based on the all-weld metal chemical composition, the type of electrode covering and other electrode properties, and the all-weld metal mechanical properties, in the as-welded or heat-treated conditions, for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels. It is a combined standard providing for classification utilizing a system based upon classification according to nominal composition or utilizing a system based upon classification according to alloy type. a) Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to nominal composition" or "ISO 3581-A" are applicable only to products classified to that system. b) Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to alloy type" or "ISO 3581-B" are applicable only to products classified to that system. c) Paragraphs and tables which carry neither label are applicable to products classified according to either or both systems.

Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels - Classification

ISO 3581:2016 specifies requirements for classification of covered electrodes, based on the all-weld metal chemical composition, the type of electrode covering and other electrode properties, and the all-weld metal mechanical properties, in the as-welded or heat-treated conditions, for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels.

It is a combined standard providing for classification utilizing a system based upon classification according to nominal composition or utilizing a system based upon classification according to alloy type.

a) Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to nominal composition" or "ISO 3581-A" are applicable only to products classified to that system.

b) Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to alloy type" or "ISO 3581-B" are applicable only to products classified to that system.

c) Paragraphs and tables which carry neither label are applicable to products classified according to either or both systems.

Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat resisting steels - Classification

Le présent document spécifie les caractéristiques de classification des électrodes enrobées, en fonction du métal fondu hors dilution, à l'état brut de soudage ou après traitement thermique, pour le soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers inoxydables et résistant aux températures élevées. Il permet une classification utilisant un système basé sur la composition nominale ou sur le type d'alliage. Il existe d'autres normes relatives à la classification des électrodes enrobées pour le soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers. Ce sont les normes NF EN ISO 18275, NF EN ISO 2560, NF EN ISO 14172 et NF EN ISO 3580.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
