Assessment of rod resistivity as a test for the cross-welding compatibility of various low carbon grades

$15.00

Investigation demonstrated rod resistivity data and carbon weight percentage accurately predicted mesh weld shear strength and set down. Reduced power consumption of ± 20% may be utilized for higher quality welds by adjusting voltage settings based on resistivity and carbon. Such data safely permits application of wider chemistry limits for mesh application
