ARC WELDING OF AUSTENITIC MANGANESE STEEL RAIL TO CARBON STEEL RAIL--IN CASE OF WELDING WITH COVERED ELECTRODE
This study is to establish the procedure to weld manganese crossing and carbon steel rail together which has been thought to be very difficult due to the difference of their metallurgical properties and others. The authors paid special attention to the procedure to join them by manual arc welding after buttering the groove face of carbon steel rail. Various fundamental experiments were performed to select electrodes for buttering and joining, and welding conditions. Based on the results obtained, austenitic manganese steel rail and carbon steel rail were welded together, and the welded rails were subjected to bending test, drop-weight test and so forth. The results show that considerably reliable welds are obtained in case the authors' proposal is adopted.
