Recommended Welding Practices

TruSTRENGTH 100 structural angles can be welded by conventional processes such as SMAW, SAW and GMAW,
provided the weld procedures used are suitable for this grade and design of the welded structure. Proper weld
procedures should include the following:

1. Low Hydrogen conditions must be used.
2. Preheating to 200-500 °F is required for heavy section (>0.750”), and is recommended for thinner sections to eliminate moisture.
3. Slow cooling rates should be avoided to prevent low toughness in the heat-affected zone (HAZ).

*These statements are general guidelines. CMC Impact Metals is not responsible for the results of any welding work
performed.
