Dear Rennie,
the material of your chain seems to be a low alloyed C-Mn-Si-Cr steel.
to suggest you the most convenient welding procedure I need to know a little description of your chain and the kind of fail it suffers
regards / Peter
: We have a chain conveyor to transport grain. Sometimes we suffer
: failure of these chains. I have sent a sample of the material for
: analysis in order to try to select a welding procedure. Here are the
: results (wt% average): Fe 96..25, Mn 0.81, Si 1.05, K 0.60, Cr
: 0.32, Cl 0.86 and Ca 0.52. What I did not expect was that
: Carbon was not detected. Anyway, I would greatly appreciate if
: somebody could suggest the type of kind of metal and a welding
: procedure. thanks Rennie
