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 14171 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes, Subcommittee

Introduction
This International Standard recognizes that there are two somewhat different approaches in the global market
to classifying a given electrode/flux combination, and allows for either or both to be used, to suit a particular
market need. Application of either type of classification designation (or of both where suitable) identifies a
product as classified in accordance with this International Standard.
This International Standard provides a classification system for the designation of solid wire electrodes in
terms of their chemical composition, tubular cored electrodes in terms of the deposit composition obtained
with a particular submerged arc flux and, where required, electrode/flux combinations in terms of the yield
strength, tensile strength and elongation of the all-weld metal deposit. The ratio of yield to tensile strength of
weld metal is generally higher than that of parent material. Users should note that matching weld metal yield
strength to parent material yield strength does not necessarily ensure that the weld metal tensile strength
matches that of the parent material. Thus, where the application of the material requires matching tensile
strengths, selection of the consumable should be made by reference to column 3 of Table 1A or 1B, as
appropriate.
Although combinations of electrodes and fluxes supplied by individual companies may have the same
classification, the individual wire electrodes and fluxes from different companies are not interchangeable
unless verified in accordance with this International Standard.
The mechanical properties of all-weld metal test specimens used to classify the electrode/flux combinations
vary from those obtained in production joints because of differences in welding procedures such as electrode
size and parent material composition.

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for the classification of electrode/flux combinations and
weld metal in the as-welded condition and in the post-weld heat-treated condition for submerged arc welding
of non alloy and fine grain steels with a minimum yield strength of up to 500 MPa or a minimum tensile
strength of up to 570 MPa. One flux can be classified with different solid wire electrodes and tubular cored
electrodes. The solid wire electrode is also classified separately based on chemical composition.
This International Standard is a combined specification providing for classification utilizing a system based
upon the yield strength and the average impact energy for weld metal of 47 J, or utilizing a system based
upon the tensile strength and the average impact energy for weld metal of 27 J.
a) Clauses, subclauses, and tables which carry the suffix letter “A” are applicable only to electrode/flux
combinations and wire electrodes classified using the system based upon the yield strength and the
average impact energy for weld metal of 47 J, in accordance with this International Standard.
b) Clauses, subclauses, and tables which carry the suffix letter “B” are applicable only to electrode/flux
combinations and wire electrodes classified using the system based upon the tensile strength and the
average impact energy for weld metal of 27 J, in accordance with this International Standard.
c) Clauses, subclauses, and tables which do not have either the suffix letter “A” or the suffix letter “B” are
applicable to all electrode/flux combinations and wire electrodes classified in accordance with this
International Standard.
Fluxes for the single-run and two-run techniques are classified on the basis of the two-run technique.

3 Classification
Classification designations are based upon two approaches to indicate the tensile properties and the impact
properties of the weld metal obtained with a given electrode/flux combination. The two designation
approaches include additional symbols for some other classification requirements, but not all, as is clear from
the following clauses. In most cases, a given commercial product can be classified in accordance with both
systems. Then either or both classification designations can be used for the product.
A solid wire electrode shall be classified in accordance with its chemical composition as given in Table 4A
or 4B.
An all-weld metal deposit from a tubular cored electrode shall be classified in accordance with the all-weld
metal composition, as given in Table 5A or 5B, obtained with a particular flux.
When the solid wire electrode or tubular cored electrode is classified in combination with a flux for submerged
arc welding, the classification shall be prefixed with a symbol in accordance with Clause 4 as appropriate.
The electrode/flux classification includes weld metal properties obtained with a manufacturer's specific
electrode/flux combination as given below. A wire electrode may be separately classified with the symbol for
its chemical composition in Table 4A or 4B.

4.3A Classification by yield strength and 47 J 4.3B Classification by tensile strength and
impact energy 27 J impact energy
Three test specimens shall be tested. Only one Five test specimens shall be tested. The lowest and
individual value may be lower than 47 J but not highest values obtained shall be disregarded. Two
lower than 32 J. of the three remaining values shall be greater than
the specified 27 J level, one of the three may be
lower, but shall not be less than 20 J. The average
of the three remaining values shall be at least 27 J.
The addition of the optional symbol U, immediately
after the symbol for condition of heat treatment,
indicates that the supplemental requirement of 47 J
impact energy at the normal 27 J impact test
temperature has also been satisfied. For the 47 J
impact requirement, the number of specimens
tested and values obtained shall meet the
requirement of 4.3A.
When an all-weld metal or a welded joint has been classified for a certain temperature, it automatically covers
any higher temperature in Table 3.
