What is ISO 19288 – Classification of Welding consumables about?
ISO 19288 specifies requirements for the classification of solid wire electrodes, solid wires, and rods for fusion welding of magnesium and magnesium alloys. The classification is based on their chemical composition.
ISO 19288 specifies compositions of solid wire electrodes for metal inert gas (MIG) welding are the same as solid wire electrodes, solid wires, and rods for tungsten inert gas (TIG) arc welding, plasma arc welding, laser beam welding, laser-MIG hybrid welding, and other fusion welding processes.
Who is ISO 19288 – Classification of Welding consumables for?
ISO 19288 on classification of welding consumables is useful for:
- Welders
- Mechanical industries
- Chemical industries
- Chemical laboratories
Why should you use ISO 19288 – Classification of Welding consumables?
ISO 19288 proposes a classification in order to designate solid wire electrodes, solid wires and rods in terms of their chemical composition.
ISO 19288 provides guidance for mechanical properties of all-weld metal test specimens or welded joints that will vary from those obtained in production due to differences in welding procedure and the parent material.
