Weldability

Silicon is used in the aluminum industry to improve castability and weldability, not to add strength. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Such deformed bars should, however, not be used for rebar joists as some of these steels have poor weldability and are expensive. ❋ Unknown (1999)

High-strength ductility, formability and weldability ❋ Unknown (1984)

Molybdenum is mostly used in the production of alloys and stainless steels, it enhances strength, hardenability, corrosion resistance, and importantly weldability. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The Fabshield 81N1+ is an all-position wire said to provide superior weldability, along with a good bead shape, especially when welding from the four o'clock to seven o'clock position. ❋ Unknown (2010)

In amounts exceeding 0.05%, it tends to cause brittleness and reduce weldability. ❋ S.SARAVANAN (2010)

Additions of sulfur in amounts from 0.1% to 0.3% will tend to improve the machinability of steel but impair weldability. ❋ S.SARAVANAN (2010)

On the other hand, increased amounts of carbon reduce weldability. ❋ S.SARAVANAN (2010)

TMCP increases the versatility of metals (specifically steel), making them more usuable - strength, toughness, ductility and weldability of steels.

The fast freezing slag assures incomparable out-of-position weldability but, unlike most E71T-1 wires, Encore provides better arc starting and produces excellent horizontal fillets. ❋ Unknown (2009)
