Abstract High-strength structural steels are used in machine, steel, and crane construction with yield strength up to 960 MPa. However, welding of these steels requires profound knowledge of three factors in terms of avoidance of hydrogen-assisted cracking (HAC): the interaction of microstructure, local stress/strain, and local hydrogen concentration. In addition to the three main factors, the used arc process is also important for the performance of the welded joint. In the past, the conventional transitional arc process (Conv. A) was mainly used for welding of high-strength steel grades. In the past decade, the so-called modified spray arc process (Mod. SA) has been increasingly used for welding production. This modified process enables reduced seam opening angles with increased deposition rates compared with the Conv. A. Economic benefits of using this arc type are a reduction of necessary weld beads and required filler material. In the present study, the susceptibility to HAC in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of the high-strength structural steel S960QL was investigated with the externally loaded implant test. For that purpose, both Conv. A and Mod. SA were used with same heat input at different deposition rates. Both conducted test series showed same embrittlement index “EI” of 0.21 at diffusible hydrogen concentrations of 1.3 to 1.6 ml/100 g of arc weld metal. The fracture occurred in the HAZ or in the weld metal (WM). However, the test series with Mod. SA showed a significant extension of the time to failure of several hours compared with tests carried out with Conv. A.

This study proposes a complete set of integrated experimental procedures to assess the risk of Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) using implant test. The proposed experimental procedures assess HIC susceptibility in base metals using two measures: the implant static fatigue limit stress (σimp); and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) maximum hardness (HV10MAX). The base metal susceptibility to HIC was evaluated by examining the effect of three welding factors: the critical cooling time between 800 °C and 500 °C (t800/500); the base metal carbon equivalent (CE); and the diffusible Hydrogen content (H). A 3-D mapping technique was used to demonstrate the interactive integrated relationships among the three examined welding factors (i.e. t800/500, CE and H) and the susceptibility of the base metal to HIC. Using the 2-D projection of the developed 3-D mapping, it was proven that the diffusible hydrogen content (H) had more effect on the HIC susceptibility of High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) steel compared to the effect of H on the HIC susceptibility of Carbon-Manganese (C-Mn) steel.

Abstract Domex 550MC is a hot-rolled, high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel for cold forming operations. It is available in thicknesses of 2.00-12.80 mm. The alloy meets or exceeds the requirements of S550MC in EN 10149-2. Applications include a wide range of fabricated components and steel structures, including truck chassis, crane booms, and earthmoving machines. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, tensile properties, and bend strength as well as fatigue. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: SA-594. Producer or source: SSAB Swedish Steel Inc.
