Can anyone provide a technical basis for width limits on weaving for carbon steels, stainless steels and nickel alloys or point to a good technical resource for discussion. I realize this is a complex question and can vary by alloy family, welding process, welding position, etc. However, I have been unable to develop a overall understanding on this subject. I just see the 2X-3X limit (on consumable diameter) quoted on welding procedures and miscellaneous literature. Any comments would be welcome. Thanks in advance
