Dear Mr. Tariq

1-you can follow ASME SEC II-part C specifications which describes the storing and handling conditions for MMA, SAW flux and wires.meanwhile manufacturers recommendations will be helpful.

 

2-If you could not maintain storing conditions it causes many defects during and after welding.

Regards,

Himan

Hi,

 

For each welding consumable brand like Esab, Hyundai, Lincoln, the manufacturer recommends for its storage conditions.

 

But for SMAW electrodes, U can refer ASME-II C, SFA 5.1, Table A3 for your knowledge.

 

For SAW flux, refer welding consumable manufacturer's catalogue for drying and holding conditions, for each type of Flux.

 

Hope it is ok.

There is no specific temperature and limit for humidity, for storage, manufacturer's recommendation is to store at dry place and at room temperature, Most of consumable are supplied in sealed packs or plastic bags so they will not absorb moisture until there is damage with packing, once you open these bags for use then further caution and manufactures instruction should be followed about drying and baking or reuse.

See e.g. Böhler Welding Guide: http://www.boehler-welding.com/english/files/Weldingguide_ENG.pdf

Possible equivalents for E10018-D2 is BOHLER NiMo 1-IG (page 2-89, similar/same stick is on page 2-82)

and for E 11018M is BOHLER NiCrMo2,5-IG (page 2-90, similar/same stick is on page 2-84).
