Filler wire Button weld test

[Ponnikumar]

Dear gentlemen,

My client inspector told me to do button weld test on plate for filler wire 309L . The dimension are follow as asme sec II c then need to do PMI verification 

My query is any requirements by code for filler wire button test for all filler and electrode and why it required ?

Hi sir,

Except Aramco standard. Can you explain from ASME codes

Hi

There are NO code requirements for button weld test. Kindly review project specification or ask the client the reason for the button weld test. Maybe he has a doubt about the electrode or something like this.

Regards

Dear Gents,

This is client spec requirements in most of the companies, as per KOC , we generally do button test

To confirm chemical composition of low alloy and high alloys electrodes per heat.

Dear 

See how you will ensure at the receiving stage you received the correct alloy material(Consumables) tell me ????

The weld button is like a test coupon where the PMI probe can easily seat and you can verify the chemistry.

I am working on ARAMCO specs, for us it's mandatory requirement

due to PMI prob inaccessibility on material like consumables and weld , weld button is alternate, in Aramco Spec

check ASME /ASTM for PMI requirements.

Dear Mr. Ponnni

If the Filler Metals are provides as per ASME SEC II C then the Test Certificate shall be as per ASME SEC II C requirement of SFA-5.01M/SFA-5.01. No other tests are required as per ASME while receiving the consumables.

Generally for Corrosion Resistant Materials, Clients specify PMI testing of materials at least for a single item in a lot. This is based on the client requirements. 

Thanks & Regards
