AWS B2.1-1-235 – Standard Welding Procedure Specification (Swps) for Argon Plus 2 Oxygen Shielded Gas Metal Arc Welding of Carbon Steel (M-1/P-1/S-1) Groups 1 and 2, 1/8 through 1-1/2 inch Thick, ER70S-3, Flat Position Only, As Welded or PWHT Condition, Primarily Pipe Applications

This standard contains the essential welding variables for carbon steel in the thickness range of 1/8 through 1-1/2 inch, using Argon plus 2% Oxygen shielded gas metal arc welding (spray transfer mode). It cites the base metals and operating conditions necessary to make the weldment, the filler metal specifications, and the allowable joint designs for groove and fillet welds. This WPS was developed primarily for pipe applications.
