What is ISO/TR 15608- Guidelines for a metallic materials grouping for welding about?
ISO/TR 15608 provides guidelines for a uniform system for grouping materials for welding purposes. ISO/TR 15608 can also be applied for other purposes, such as heat treatment, forming, and non-destructive testing.
ISO/TR 15608 covers grouping systems for the following standardized materials:
- Steels
- Aluminium and its alloys
- Copper and its alloys
- Nickel and its alloys
- Titanium and its alloys
- Zirconium and its alloys
- Cast irons
Who is ISO/TR 15608- Guidelines for a metallic materials grouping for welding for?
ISO/TR 15608 on guidelines for a metallic material grouping for welding is useful for:
- Welders
- Metallic industries
Why should you use ISO/TR 15608- Guidelines for a metallic materials grouping for welding?
Metallic material grouping for welding is done to reduce the number of welding procedures, codes and standards give provisions for a particular parent material and filler materials to cover a range of other materials considered to have similar weldability.
ISO/TR 15608 provides guidance on the grouping system for the standardized materials ISO/TR 15608 helps to improve the quality of welding of metallic material. With obedience and compliance to ISO/TR 15608, you can efficiently group material for welding. ISO/TR 15608 provides you with comprehensive information useful throughout the process of grouping materials for welding.
