Description
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WELDING:
– The surface on which the Excavator Hook is to be welded must be free from rust, paint, and degreaser before welding. It must be flat and able to support the load.
– The percentage of carbon in the support material must be 0.25-0.40%.
– The welding filler must match the support material to ensure successful welding.
– The hook must be positioned so the weld is only in shear. No bending moment can be placed on the weld seam.
– If the ambient temperature is 10°C or below, the weld area must be pre-heated before welding begins.
– The welds must be strong enough to support the required loads.
– A minimum weld-seam width must be maintained to ensure adequate weld strength (see table).
– The root pass and final weld pass should start from the centre of the welded support.
– Before starting the final weld pass, clean the root pass well to avoid any inclusion of impurities.
– The complete welding operation should be carried out continuously so that the parts do not have time to cool down.
