➢ Welding process
Any conventional fusion welding method can be used, such as submerged arc
welding (SAW), manual metal arc welding (SMAW), flux core wire arc welding
(FCAW), HIG, MAG (GMAW) and TIG (GTAW)
Interpass temperature should be limited to a maximum of 200°C (392°F).
➢ Preheating
TS 800 can be welded without any crack risk according to following
recommended conditions (forecast for highly clamped weld).
