Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels - Classification (ISO 3581:2016, Corrected version 2017-11-01)

ISO 3581:2016 specifies requirements for classification of covered electrodes, based on the all-weld metal chemical composition, the type of electrode covering and other electrode properties, and the all-weld metal mechanical properties, in the as-welded or heat-treated conditions, for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels.
It is a combined standard providing for classification utilizing a system based upon classification according to nominal composition or utilizing a system based upon classification according to alloy type.
a)    Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to nominal composition" or "ISO 3581-A" are applicable only to products classified to that system.
b)    Paragraphs and tables which carry the label "classification according to alloy type" or "ISO 3581-B" are applicable only to products classified to that system.
c)    Paragraphs and tables which carry neither label are applicable to products classified according to either or both systems.

Produits consommables pour le soudage - Électrodes enrobées pour le soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers inoxydables et résistant aux températures élevées - Classification (ISO 3581:2016, Version corrigée 2017-11-01)

L'ISO 3581:2016 spécifie les exigences relatives à la classification des électrodes enrobées destinées au soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers inoxydables et résistant aux températures élevées, basée sur la composition chimique du métal fondu hors dilution, sur le type d'enrobage et d'autres propriétés de l'électrode, ainsi que sur les caractéristiques mécaniques du métal fondu hors dilution, à l'état brut de soudage ou traité thermiquement.
Elle est une norme mixte qui permet une classification utilisant un système basé sur la composition nominale ou sur le type d'alliage.
a)    Les paragraphes et les tableaux qui portent la mention «classification d'après la composition nominale» ou qui sont identifiés «ISO 3581-A» ne sont applicables qu'aux produits classifiés d'après ledit système.
b)    Les paragraphes et les tableaux qui portent la mention «classification d'après le type d'alliage» ou qui sont identifiés par «ISO 3581-B» ne sont applicables qu'aux produits classifiés d'après ledit système.
c)    Les paragraphes et les tableaux qui ne portent aucune des deux mentions sont applicables aux produits classifiés soit d'après l'un des systèmes, soit d'après les deux systèmes.

Dodajni materiali za varjenje - Oplaščene elektrode za ročno obločno varjenje nerjavnih in ognjeodpornih jekel - Razvrstitev (ISO 3581:2016)

Ta mednarodni standard določa zahteve za razvrstitev pokritih (paličnih) elektrod na osnovi kemijske sestave čistega vara, vrste obloge elektrode in drugih značilnosti elektrod ter mehanskih lastnosti čistega vara v varjenem stanju in s toplotno obdelavo za ročno obločno varjenje nerjavnega in toplotno odpornega jekla.
Ta mednarodni standard je združen standard, ki omogoča razvrstitev po sistemu na podlagi nominalne sestave ali sistemu na podlagi razvrstitve glede na vrsto zlitine.
a) Odstavki in preglednice z oznako »razvrstitev v skladu z nominalno sestavo« ali ISO 3581-A se uporabljajo samo za proizvode, razvrščene po tem sistemu.
b) Odstavki in preglednice z oznako »razvrstitev v skladu z vrsto zlitine« ali ISO 3581-B se uporabljajo samo za proizvode, razvrščene po tem sistemu.
c) Odstavki in preglednice brez katere koli od teh oznak se uporabljajo za proizvode, razvrščene v skladu z enim od teh sistemov ali obema sistemoma.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

ISO 3581:2016(E)
Introduction
This International Standard provides a classification system for stainless steel, covered welding
electrodes in terms of chemical composition of deposited weld metal and type of electrode covering.
Other properties of the electrodes are specified by reference to tables.
This International Standard recognizes that there are two somewhat different approaches in the global
market for classifying a given stainless steel, covered electrode, and allows for either or both to be used
to suit a particular need. Application of either (or both) type(s) of classification designation identifies
a product as classified according to this International Standard. It is important to note that the two
systems are not exactly equivalent; therefore, each system must be used independent of the other,
without combining designators in any way.
The classification according to ISO 3581, system A, is mainly based upon EN 1600 while the classification
according to ISO 3581, system
