Effect of welding consumables on shielded metal arc welded ultra high hard armour steel joints
Materials with high hardness are usually preferred in armour applications and are difficult to weld due to high Carbon Equivalent (C.E).In this investigation, an attempt was made to weld Ultra-high Hard Armour (UHA) steel (having C.E of 0.91) by Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) process using three electrodes (i) austenitic stainless steel (ASS- E3
