BS EN ISO 18276:2017 specifies the requirements for classification of tubular cored electrodes with or without
a gas shield for metal arc welding of high-strength steels in the as-welded condition or in the postweld
heat-treated condition with a minimum yield strength higher than 550 MPa or a minimum tensile
strength higher than 590 MPa. One tubular cored electrode can be tested and classified with different
shielding gases, if used with more than one.
This document is a combined specification providing classification utilizing a system based upon the
yield strength and an average impact energy of 47 J of the all-weld metal, or utilizing a system based
upon the tensile strength and an average impact energy of 27 J of the all-weld metal.
- Subclauses and tables which carry the suffix letter "A" are applicable only to tubular cored electrodes
classified under the system based upon the yield strength and an average impact energy of 47 J of
the all-weld metal given in this document.
- Subclauses and tables which carry the suffix letter "B" are applicable only to tubular cored electrodes
classified under the system based upon the tensile strength and an average impact energy of 27 J of
the all-weld metal given in this document.
- Subclauses and tables which do not have either the suffix letter "A" or the suffix letter "B" are
applicable to all tubular cored electrodes classified under this document.
It is recognized that the operating characteristics of tubular cored electrodes can be modified by the
use of pulsed current but, for the purposes of this document, pulsed current is not used for determining
the electrode classification.
