NOTES

Note
Remove all damaged and foreign material by the air-carbon arc gouging process and grinding. Ensure all defective metal is removed.
In the event hairline cracks remain at flangeway depth, use a 1/8 in diameter E308 stainless electrode, to tie up these cracks and avoid hot cracking during the buildup process.
Use only light amounts and do not build-up with E308 stainless. It is for use in emergency situations where no other alternative is available to repair flangeway cracks.
As with all austenitic manganese welding products, interpass temperatures should be limited to 260°C (500°F) maximum.
A stringer bead, or at most, a slight weave is recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up causes manganese carbide precipitation that damages the toughness of austenitic manganese.
