[1] Preheat: Production welding by the foundry; requirements for austenitic/austenitic-ferritic grades are normative.; Preheat temperature depends on casting geometry, thickness and climatic conditions.

[2] Interpass Temperature: Production welding by the foundry; requirements for austenitic/austenitic-ferritic grades are normative.

[3] Post-weld Heat Treatment: Production welding by the foundry; requirements for austenitic/austenitic-ferritic grades are normative.; In general, production welds are major when prepared cavity depth exceeds 40% of the wall thickness; minor weld corrosion conditions may require special agreement.

EN 10283 · Edition 2019

[4] Preheat: Preheat depends on casting geometry, thickness and climatic conditions.

[5] Post-weld Heat Treatment: minor welds; Air quenching may be agreed for very small, thin castings according to corrosion conditions.

[6] Post-weld Heat Treatment: major welds; Air quenching may be agreed for very small, thin castings according to corrosion conditions.
