Overview
EN 1011-8:2018 - “Welding - Recommendations for welding of metallic materials - Part 8: Welding of cast irons” (CEN) provides guidance and requirements for the fusion welding of unalloyed and low-alloy cast iron castings produced in accordance with EN 1561 (grey), EN 1562 (malleable) and EN 1563 (spheroidal graphite). It supersedes EN 1011-8:2004 and is part of the EN 1011 series that gives practical recommendations for welding metallic materials across different material groups.
This standard applies to production, finishing and repair welding of cast iron castings but does not apply to joint welding of cast iron castings to other materials.
Key Topics
- Scope and terminology relevant to production, joint, finishing and repair welding of cast irons.
- Approved fusion welding processes (examples per EN ISO 4063): 111 (MMA), 141/143 (TIG), 13 (GMAW), 311 (oxy-acetylene), submerged arc, plasma and others, plus cast welding and liquid metal welding.
- Welding consumables: selection of homogeneous, semi-homogeneous or non-homogeneous filler metals; storage and handling; conformity to European / International standards.
- Pre‑weld preparation: storage, handling, identification of parent metal, joint preparation and removal of defects.
- Equipment and ancillary requirements: power sources, preheat/post‑weld heat treatment facilities, inspection/test equipment, fixtures and safety PPE.
- Quality assurance and documentation: welding procedure specifications (WPS), traceability, inspection, testing, non‑conformance and corrective actions (Annex A normative).
- Thermal control and distortion management: preheat/interpass temperatures, heat input, weld run sequence, elimination of residual stresses and post‑weld heat treatment.
- Inspection and acceptance: nondestructive and destructive testing guidance, finishing weld criteria (Annex B informative).
Applications / Who should use this standard
- Foundries and manufacturers producing cast iron components (grey, malleable, spheroidal graphite).
- Welding engineers, welding coordinators and qualified welders who perform fusion welding and repair of castings.
- Quality managers and inspectors responsible for WPS, traceability, NDT and post‑weld treatment.
- Purchasers and specifiers who need to define welding requirements for cast iron components in contracts.
Related Standards (if applicable)
- EN 1561, EN 1562, EN 1563 - Founding standards for cast irons
- EN 1011-1:2009 - General guidance for arc welding
- EN ISO 4063 - Welding process nomenclature
- EN ISO 15609-1 / EN ISO 15609-2 - WPS specification
- EN ISO 3834 (recommended) - Quality requirements for fusion welding
Use EN 1011-8:2018 when specifying welding procedures, selecting consumables, and establishing inspection and quality control for safe, reliable welding of cast iron castings.
