Submerged Arc Welding - the Most Practical Steel Pipe Welding Technology

Until today, submerged arc welding(SAW), full name is automatic submerged arc welding, also known as automatic arc welding under the flux layer, has become one of the most practical mechanized welding methods.

Submerged arc welding technology can benefit users in many welding applications. From increasing productivity to improving the working environment to ensuring consistent quality and more. In this passage, we will talk about the advantages and application range of submerged arc welding.

Advantages of Submerged Arc Welding:

- high deposition rate and travel speed

- excellent weld chemistry and mechanical properties

- minimal arc visibility and lower welding fumes

- improved comfort in the work environment

- good weld shape and toe line

- high quality of welding seam

- good labor conditions

Application Range of Submerged Arc Welding:

Submerged arc welding technology is suitable for heavy industrial applications such as pipelines, pressure vessels and storage tanks, locomotive construction and heavy construction/excavation.

At present, it is mainly used for welding various steel plate structures. Weldable steel types include carbon structural steel, stainless steel, heat-resistant steel and its composite steel. Submerged arc welding is most widely used in shipbuilding, boilers, chemical containers, bridges, lifting machinery, metallurgical machinery manufacturing, marine structures, and nuclear power equipment. In addition, submerged arc welding is used for surfacing wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant alloys or for welding nickel-based alloys, copper alloys are also ideal.
