NO65G TIG rod, equivalent to AWS A5.18 ER70S-2, contains less C, Si and Mn contents than TG-S50 or TG-S51T; instead, Al, Ti and Zr are specially added. These elements help to decrease the amount of oxygen in the molten pool, allowing NO65G to provide a weld metal of relatively high cleanness. On the other hand, it is a little inferior to TG-S50 or TG-S51T in terms of fluidity of molten metal, because of which its surface tension increases while the oxygen content in the molten metal is decreased.
Because Al, Ti or Zr is an element with high oxygen affinity, slag can be generated on the bead surface after a part of the element combines with oxygen in the molten metal during welding. Users are therefore advised to beware of weld defects, such as poor bead appearance or slag inclusion, caused by the slag.
Each chemical element in NO65G rod is strictly controlled to maintain a narrow range within the AWS A5.18 ER70S-2 specification so that it can meet the tough requirements set out by Japanese clients for mechanical properties in critical structural projects.
