similar to AISI 316.
Welding
SS LD24 can be welded using most of the conventional welding methods,
such as MMA/SMAW, TIG, MIG, SAW, FCAW, laser, etc. Due to its two-phase
structure, it is resistant to hot cracking, grain coarsening embrittlement and
martensite formation. Set up recommendations for proper welds conditions
include over alloyed filler material, a heat input of 2 KJ/mm maximum and
nitrogen addition in the shielding gas. As for other duplex stainless steels,
preheating or after welding process heat treatments are not recommended for
SS LD24.
