Up Topic American Welding Society Services / Certifications / WPS Needed - GMAW Structural Stainless

I was hoping to identfy a SWPS for Stainless Plate using GMAW but the only one I can find requires the use the Short Circut Transfer Mode (B2.1-8-005:2002) and limits the plate thickness to 18-10 gauge. Our mig equipment does not have short circut capabilities and we are working with material at 0.125" up to 0.375" in thickness.

Am I overlooking another SWPS.

Michael,

Have you considered AWS D1.6- Stainless Welding Code. I qualified a pWPS for a company recently covering spary transfer, short arc and pulse arc. These all were within the pre-qualified essential variables and performed quite well. The joint design was B-U2-GF.
