I want to weld a CF 1018 bar to a A36 hot rolled plate. I'm using the 1018 as a boss and want to use the CF 1018 material because of tighter tolerances than hot rolled A36 round. Are there any weldability issues between hot rolled A36 and CF1018? Does anyone know where I could find more information on this?
A307 and A325 are both unlisted materials so "technically" would require that a procedure qualification be written. They weld beautifully however to A36 using "plain jane" 70 series carbon steel filler metals.
The welding part of it will work beautifully but I have to remind you that you may need to qualify a welding procedure (depending on your industry and customer requirements). Can't comment regarding your load and the ability of the weld to resist the load.
