Abstract
The success of Dissimilar Metal Welding (DMW) occurred in optimal Heat-input (HI) parameters. The quality of welding joints was affected by dilution, hardness value, and intermetallic microstructure. DMW quality research was carried out on stainless steel SA SS312-TP304 and SA 53GrB carbon steel using the GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) process with Heat-input of 1866.6 to 2362.2 J/mm. Visual observation on weld joints was not found weld defects. The optimal dilution area in the Schaeffler Diagram was obtained 35.35% austenitic area and without ferrite content. The lowest hardness value on carbon steel was 145 HV. The highest hardness value of 197 HV occurred in filler-metal dilution on carbon steel, so the difference in the value of hardness was high. The hardness value on stainless steel was 184 HV and in filler-metal stainless steel dilution was 172– 90 HV, so the difference in hardness value was low. Microstructure filler-metal dilution on stainless steel was austenite-dendritic, filler-metal dilution on carbon steel was fine-grained dendritic, and on allweld metal coarse-grained dendritic metal. HAZ stainless steel austenite microstructure and ferrite-pearlite carbon steel with an indication of a ferrite net. Observation of dilution, hardness value, and microstructure in DMW did not have a significant effect. This welded joint could be used as a reference in the DMW fabrication process for stainless steel and carbon steel pipe connections.
