Welding Steps of 45Cr Steel

45Cr steel is a high-carbon chromium bearing steel, commonly used in the manufacture of mechanical parts and automotive engine parts, etc. To weld 45Cr steel, the following steps need to be followed:
1.Prepare welding material. Using welding material that meets the requirements, such as J107 or J110 welding wire, whose composition should be similar to 45Cr steel to ensure good metallurgical bonding and strength of the welded joint.

2.Clean the welding area. Removing dirt and oxides from the welding area of 45Cr steel to ensure the smoothness and surface quality of the welded joint.

3. Preheating the welding area. For the welding of 45Cr steel, preheating is very important. The preheat temperature should be between 100°C and 150°C to ensure that the weld area is not affected by cold embrittlement.

4. Use TIG or MIG welding. Use TIG or MIG welding technology for welding of 45Cr steel, the current and welding speed should be strictly controlled during the welding process to ensure the quality and strength of the 45Cr steel welded joints.
