Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of creep-resisting steels - Classification (ISO 3580:2010)

ISO 3580:2010 specifies requirements for classification of covered electrodes, based on the all-weld metal in the heat-treated condition, for manual metal arc welding of ferritic and martensitic creep-resisting and low alloy elevated temperature steels.
ISO 3580:2010 is a combined specification for classification utilizing a system based upon the chemical composition of the all-weld metal, with requirements for the yield strength and impact energy of the all-weld metal, or utilizing a system based upon the tensile strength and the chemical composition of the all-weld metal.
Paragraphs and tables which carry the suffix letter “A” are applicable only to electrodes classified to the system based upon chemical composition, with requirements for the yield strength and impact energy of the all-weld metal under ISO 3580:2010.
Paragraphs and tables which carry the suffix letter “B” are applicable only to electrodes classified to the system based upon the tensile strength and the chemical composition of all-weld metal under ISO 3580:2010.
Paragraphs and tables which do not have either the suffix letter “A” or the suffix letter “B” are applicable to all covered electrodes classified under ISO 3580:2010.
For comparison purposes, some tables include requirements for electrodes classified according to both systems, placing individual electrodes from the two systems, which are similar in composition and properties, on adjacent lines in the particular table. In a particular line of the table that is mandatory in one system, the symbol for the similar electrode from the other system is indicated in parentheses. By appropriate restriction of the formulation of a particular electrode, it is often, but not always, possible to produce an electrode that can be classified in both systems, in which case the electrode, and/or its packaging, may be marked with the classification in either or both systems.

Schweißzusätze - Umhüllte Stabelektroden zum Lichtbogenhandschweißen von warmfesten Stählen - Einteilung (ISO 3580:2010)

Diese Internationale Norm legt Anforderungen für die Einteilung von umhüllten Stabelektroden zum Lichtbogenhandschweißen von ferritischen und martensitischen warmfesten Stählen sowie niedrig legierten Stählen für erhöhte Temperatur fest, basierend auf dem reinen Schweißgut nach Wärmebehandlung. Diese Internationale Norm enthält eine gemeinsame Spezifikation zur Einteilung nach der chemischen Zusammensetzung des reinen Schweißgutes mit Anforderungen an Streckgrenze und Kerbschlagarbeit des reinen Schweißgutes oder nach der Zugfestigkeit und der chemischen Zusammensetzung des reinen Schweißgutes. a) Abschnitte und Tabellen, gekennzeichnet durch ein nachgestelltes „A“, können nur für Stabelektroden angewendet werden, die nach der chemischen Zusammensetzung und Anforderungen an Streckgrenze und Kerbschlagarbeit des reinen Schweißgutes nach dieser Internationalen Norm eingeteilt werden. b) Abschnitte und Tabellen, gekennzeichnet durch ein nachgestelltes „B“, können nur für Stabelektroden angewendet werden, die nach der Zugfestigkeit und der chemischen Zusammensetzung des reinen Schweißgutes nach dieser Internationalen Norm eingeteilt werden. c) Abschnitte und Tabellen, die kein nachgestelltes „A“ oder „B“ enthalten, sind für alle nach dieser Internationalen Norm eingeteilten Stabelektroden anwendbar. In einigen Tabellen sind zum Vergleich die Anforderungen an Stabelektroden nach den beiden Normsystemen zusammengestellt. In Zusammensetzung und Eigenschaften ähnliche Stabelektroden aus beiden Systemen werden in der betreffenden Tabelle in derselben Zeile in benachbarten Spalten aufgeführt. Die eine Spalte enthält das für das eine System verbindliche Kurzzeichen, die andere Spalte in Klammern das für die ähnliche Stabelektrode geltende Kurzzeichen nach dem anderen System. Durch geeignete Anpassung ist es oft, aber nicht immer, möglich, eine Stabelektrode herzustellen, die nach beiden Systemen eingeteilt werden kann.

Produits consommables pour le soudage - Électrodes enrobées pour le soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers résistant au fluage - Classification (ISO 3580:2010)

L'ISO 3580:2010 spécifie les exigences relatives à la classification des électrodes enrobées, d'après le métal fondu hors dilution à l'état traité thermiquement, pour le soudage manuel à l'arc des aciers ferritiques et martensitiques résistant au fluage et des aciers faiblement alliés pour usage à haute température.
L'ISO 3580:2010 propose une spécification mixte permettant une classification utilisant un système fondé soit sur la composition chimique du métal fondu hors dilution, avec des exigences portant sur la limite d'élasticité et l'énergie de rupture pour le métal fondu hors dilution, soit sur la résistance à la traction et la composition chimique du métal fondu hors dilution.
Les paragraphes et les tableaux portant le suffixe «A» sont applicables uniquement aux électrodes enrobées classifiées d'après le système basé sur la composition chimique, avec des exigences portant sur la limite d'élasticité et l'énergie de rupture pour le métal fondu hors dilution conformément à l'ISO 3580:2010.
Les paragraphes et les tableaux portant le suffixe «B» sont applicables uniquement aux électrodes enrobées classifiées d'après le système basé sur la résistance à la traction et la composition chimique du métal fondu hors dilution conformément à l'ISO 3580:2010.
Les paragraphes et les tableaux ne portant ni le suffixe «A» ni le suffixe «B» sont applicables à toutes les électrodes enrobées classifiées conformément à l'ISO 3580:2010.
Afin de permettre des comparaisons, certains tableaux comportent des exigences relatives aux électrodes classifiées selon les deux systèmes, ce qui place des électrodes particulières, ayant des compositions et des propriétés similaires des deux systèmes, sur des lignes adjacentes de ces tableaux. Sur une ligne particulière du tableau ayant un caractère obligatoire dans l'un des systèmes, le symbole affecté à l'électrode similaire de l'autre système figure entre parenthèses. En restreignant de façon adéquate la formulation d'une électrode donnée, il est souvent possible, mais pas toujours, de fabriquer une électrode pouvant être classifiée dans les deux systèmes, auquel cas l'électrode et/ou son emballage peut être marqué de la classification suivant l'un ou l'autre des deux systèmes, ou suivant les deux.

Foreword
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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 3580 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes, Subcommittee
SC 3, Welding consumables.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 3580:2004).
Requests for official interpretations of any aspect of this International Standard should be directed to the

ISO 3580:2010(E)
Introduction
This International Standard proposes a method for classification of covered electrodes, in terms of chemical
composition of the all-weld metal (system A) and in terms of tensile strength and chemical composition
(system B).
The mechanical properties of all-weld metal test specimens used to classify the electrodes vary from those
obtained in production joints because of differences in welding procedure such as electrode diameter, width of
weave, welding position and material composition.
[1]
The classification according to system A is mainly based on EN 1599:1997 . The classification according to
system B is mainly based upon standards used around the Pacific Rim.
