Abstract : Production rate and excellent metal deposition rate makes Flux cored arc welding (FCAW) unique among all welding process. The application of FCAW in field of structure joining of high strength allow steel is large. The base metal consists of two 150 × 150 × 16 mm thick steel plates of grade IS2062 E 350 are chosen for the study. The weld metals made by repeated pass FCAW process were submitted to tensile, bending and charpy-V examination. The metallographic examination for samples removed transversally to the weld bead. For the experiment, optimum parameters were chosen. From this study, the result showed that the mechanical and microstructural propertied of weld bead are superior than the base metal.

Keywords : FCAW, HAZ, IS2062, E350 Steel, Microstructure.
