Abstract
Structure and properties of welded joints in heat-resistant steel 15Kh1M1F after long-time operation are described. An estimate of damageability of the joints and a negative forecast of further operation are given.
Keywords: welded joints, heat-resistant steels, steam supply line, pores, operating life, damaging, structure, creep
