Welding Procedure Specification

This welding procedure specification outlines the requirements for welding 4140 steel using shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) with E9018 filler metals. It specifies butt and fillet welds in all positions with a preheat temperature of 350°F. The WPS allows for multi-pass single-V groove welds from 0.125 to 0.750 inches thick using 3/32, 1/8, or 1/8 inch diameter electrodes with currents between 70-160 amps and voltages from 14-24 volts. The procedure was qualified for full and partial joint penetration welds and meets ASME and AWS standards.
