UNE-EN ISO 14341:2021

This document specifies requirements for classification of wire electrodes and weld deposits in the as-welded condition and in the post-weld heat-treated condition for gas shielded metal arc welding of non alloy and fine grain steels with a minimum yield strength of up to 500 MPa or a minimum tensile strength of up to 570 MPa. One wire electrode can be tested and classified with different shielding gases.

This document constitutes a combined specification providing classification utilizing a system based upon the yield strength and the average impact energy of 47 J of all-weld metal, or utilizing a system based upon the tensile strength and the average impact energy of 27 J of all-weld metal.

a)Clauses and tables which carry the suffix letter A are applicable only to wire electrodes classifiedto the system based upon the yield strength and the average impact energy of 47 J of all-weld metal in accordance with this document.

b)Clauses and tables which carry the suffix letter B are applicable only to wire electrodes classifiedto the system based upon the tensile strength and the average impact energy of 27 J of all-weld metal in accordance with this document.

c)Clauses and tables which have neither the suffix letter A nor the suffix letter B are applicable toall wire electrodes classified in accordance with this document.
