Description

The present invention relates to a welding material for heterogeneous fusion welding of cast iron, particularly (but not solely) of cast iron of the spheroidal graphite type.
There have been a number of proposals for welding cast iron, in particular cast iron containing spheroidal graphite.
A distinction may be drawn fundamentally between welding methods in which a similar weld metal is aimed at, i.e. a weld metal in which the carbon is preponderantly present in the form of spheroidal graphite, and methods in which a dissimilar weld metal is produced, which consists of a nickel alloy and in particular a nickel-iron alloy. ~-Although heterogenous fusion welding has so far offered certain improvements regarding the technical characteristics of the weld metal, the unfavourable effect of heat on the marginal transition areas of the base metal has had to be ameliorated by means of subsequent heat treatment of the welded parts. What is desired is a welding material whose use yields welding results in which fully satisfactory technological properties may be obtained transversely to the welding direction, even in the marginal areas of the welding zone, without special heat treatment of the welded parts.
It is known from German Patent Specification (Auslege-schrift) 2,437,247 that with modified nickel-iron electrodes it is possible to obtain relatively high elongation values, of the order of magnitude of approximately 25 %, upon taking longitudinal traction test specimens from multilayer joint welds. If welds of this kind are tested transversely to the welding direction however (transverse traction test specimens), fracture commonly occurs at quite small elongation values in the region of transition between the weld metal and the base metal, these elongation values lying usually below 5 ~.

The invention provides welding material for dissimilar fusion welding of cast iron, particularly of such of the speroidal 10805~

graphite type, the welding material is composed sub~tantially of a nickel base alloy containing carbon, silicon, manganese and at least one of the carbide.forming elements titanium niobium, tantalum, and zirconium, the percentages of the constituents based on the total weight of the alloy components are the following:
Ni~ 75 %
C C 2.0 %

Si = 0.05 to ~.0 %
. , 0,/
lo A Mn = ~ to 20.0 %
Ti+Nb+Ta+Zr = 0.5 to 5.0 %
Co = 2.0 to 20.0 % and Fe 5 15.0 %
Preferably the silicon content is not more than 3 % and the Mn content not more than 10 %.
In the case of bare wires or rods intended for welding under a protective gas, the composition of the rod or bar practically coincides with that of the weld metal. The adaptations or modifications which should be performed to obtain the desired . ~ -weld metal in the case of other forms of embodiment, say in the case of coated rod electrodes which may contain a proportion of the alloy components within the coating, in the case of submerged arc welding with a wire or strip in combination with an appropriate flux-powder, or in the case of cored wire welding are known and familiar to those versed in the art of welding.
During use of the welding material, the cobalt component makes itself felt in the weld metal in such manner that the forming of brittle structural constituents in the heat-afected ~ transition zone of the base metal is impeded in wholly unexpected manner, so that no premature fracture will occur in this region.
As has been shown by extensive tests, fracture of transverse traction specimens, in which elongation values are reached of the , : ~

~080514 order of magnitude of 15 to 20 %, occurs in the base metal outside the transition region after correspondingly extensive deformation.
Example 1: By way of comparison, welding joints (Vee seams) were produced with 15 mm thick plates of spheroidal graphite cast iron, using the protective gas welding method, with bare wires of a diameter of 1.2~mm, the welding operation being performed without preheating and without subsequent heat treatment. The weld metal practically identical in composition to the wire, had the chemical compositions (in wt.%) listed in Table 1. In the case of specimens 1 and 2, cobalt was present in the Fe/Ni alloys only as an impurity, whereas specimen 3 corresponded to the present invention.

The cast iron had the following chemical composition (wt.%):
3.48% C, 2.41% Si, 0.17% Mn, 0.022% P, 0.003% S and 0.047% Mg, the balance being Fe. Its yield point ~ S' amounted to 343 N/mm and its tensile strength ~ B to 465 N/mm2, the elongation ~5 being determined at 19.2%. Tensile test specimens (zylindrical) were taken transversely to the welding seam from the welded plates and tested in respect of their properties. The values shown in Table 2 were obtained.
