AWS A5.1/A5.1M Document Information:
Title
Specification for Carbon Steel Electrodes for Shielded Metal Arc Welding
American Welding Society
Publication Date:
Jan 1, 2004
Scope:
This specification prescribes requirements for the classification of
carbon steel electrodes for
shielded metal arc welding.
Safety and health issues and concerns are beyond the scope of this
standard and, therefore, are not
fully addressed herein. Some safety and health information can be
found in the Nonmandatory Annex
Sections A5 and A10. Safety and health information is available from
other sources, including, but
not limited to, ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied
Processes,(Footnote 1) and
applicable federal and state regulations.
This specification makes use of both U.S. Customary Units and the
International System of Units
(SI).
The measurements are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system
must be used independently of
the other without combining in any way when referring to material
properties. The specification
with the designation A5.1 uses U.S. Customary Units. The specification
A5.1M uses SI Units. The
latter are shown within brackets [ ] or in appropriate columns in
tables and figures. Standard
dimensions based on either system may be used for sizing of filler
metal or packaging or both under
A5.1 or A5.1M specifications.
