Preventing Stress Cracking in Welds
Stress cracking occurs when residual welding stresses exceed the material's strength, often in high-restraint conditions. Control through proper joint design, welding sequence, preheat, and stress relief procedures.
Low Stress
CRONIGON® 2
Reduces residual stress: CRONIGON 2 provides controlled penetration and heat input characteristics that help minimize residual stress formation in critical applications.
