Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 18274 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes, Subcommittee
SC 3, Welding consumables.

Introduction
For nickel welding consumables, there is no unique relationship between the product form (solid wire
electrode, solid strip electrode, solid wire or solid rod) and the welding process used (e.g. gas shielded metal
arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, plasma arc welding, submerged arc welding, strip overlay welding,
laser welding or other welding processes). For this reason, the solid wire electrode, solid strip electrode, solid
wire or solid rod may be classified on the basis of any of the above product forms and can be used as
appropriate, for more than one of the above processes.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 18274:2010(E)

Welding consumables — Solid wire electrodes, solid strip

electrodes, solid wires and solid rods for fusion welding
of nickel and nickel alloys — Classification

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for classification of solid wire electrodes, solid strip
electrodes, solid wires and solid rods for fusion welding of nickel and nickel alloys. The classification of the
solid wire electrodes, solid strip electrodes, solid wires and solid rods is based on their chemical composition.

2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

bdeba6213e25/iso-18274-2010

3 Classification
The classification is divided into two parts:

a) the first part indicates the product form, being solid wire electrode, solid strip electrode, solid wire or solid
rod, see 4.1;

b) the second part gives a numerical symbol indicating the chemical composition of the solid wire electrode,
solid strip electrode, solid wire or solid rod, see Table 1.

4 Symbols and requirements

4.1 Symbols for the product form

The symbol for the solid wire electrode, solid wire or solid rod shall be “S”. The symbol for the solid strip
electrode shall be “B”.

NOTE One product form can be used for more than one welding process.

ISO 18274:2010(E)

4.2 Symbol for the chemical composition

The initial symbol “Ni" in Table 1 identifies the welding consumable as a nickel base alloy. The following four
digits indicate the chemical composition of the solid wire electrode, solid strip electrode, solid wire or solid rod,
determined under conditions given in Clause 6. The first digit is an indicator of the alloy group as follows:

⎯ 1 significant molybdenum addition without significant chromium addition (nickel-molybdenum alloys);

⎯ 2 no significant alloy addition;

⎯ 4 significant copper addition (nickel-copper alloys);

⎯ 5 significant copper additions with aluminium and titanium for precipitation hardening;

⎯ 6 significant chromium addition, with iron less than 25 % (by mass) (nickel-chromium-iron and nickel-
chromium-molybdenum alloys);

⎯ 7 same as 6, but with aluminium and titanium for precipitation hardening;

⎯ 8 significant chromium addition, with iron more than 25 % (by mass) (nickel-iron-chromium alloys).

The remaining digits indicate the alloy composition of the welding consumable. A description of common uses
of each welding consumable alloy is given in Annex A. The basis of the system of designation is described in
Annex B.

NOTE iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW

In addition, the chemical symbol can be used.
