Abstract
Comparative analysis of the properties of sheet welded joints of alloy 1420, produced by fusion welding with application of serial and experimental filler wires, containing scandium, is performed. It is shown that scandium addition to welding wires creates prerequisites for further strengthening of the weld metal. A heat treatment mode is suggested allowing the production of equivalent joints with an improved system of physico-mechanical properties.
Keywords: welded joints, strength, hardness, filler wire, scandium, artificial ageing, weld, heat-affected zone, heat treatment, hardening, phases
