Is PWHT a Good Idea?
We are welding a thin wall (0.048") bushing to 1/8" thick material, both are 304 Stainless Steel using TIG with the appropriate rod. The weld is thee pretty good sized tacks. Would a post weld heating be recommended to prevent cracking? If so, at what temperature and how long?
Thanks,
