Full Description

ISO 3580:2004 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.

This International Standard 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 the average impact energy of 47 J of all-weld metal, or utilizing a system based upon the tensile strength and the chemical composition of all-weld metal.
