Welding consumables - Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels - Classification (ISO 3581:2003+Cor 1:2008+Amd 1:2011)
ISO 3581 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.

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 3581 was prepared in collaboration with the International Institute of Welding which has been approved
by the ISO Council as an international standardizing body in the field of welding.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 3581:1976), which has been technically
revised.

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 has been prepared by the International Institute of Welding, Commission II “Arc
Welding”, Subcommission II-E. It 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 should be noted 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; the classification
according to ISO 3581, system B, is mainly based upon standards used around the Pacific Rim.
