ANNEX 1
DETERMINATION OF THE CONTENT OF FERRITE PHASE DURING STEEL MELTING AND IN WELDING WIRE
1. Determination of the ferrite phase content is carried out by the magnetic method using a ferritometer type FC-2.
(Changed edition, Amendment No. 2).
2. From each sample or from each sample taken as specified in clause 4.6 of this standard, at least two control samples are made, the dimensions of which must correspond to those indicated in the table.
mm
Purpose of control sample | Diameter (limit deviation ± 0.1) | Length (limit deviation ±1) |

Distinctive features
When choosing welding materials, both production technologists and home craftsmen are faced with a serious question. He needs to find wire or electrodes that provide high quality seam joints, are unpretentious to welding conditions, and, last but not least, are not too expensive. When compared, SV08G2S wire comes out ahead in many respects.
SV08G2S has the following features compared to other welding materials:
- promotes stability of the electric arc, reduces the risk of electrode sticking to the surface of the workpiece;
- supports a wide range of welding modes;
- compatible with most types of welding machines;
- allows you to minimize the splashing of molten metal;
- facilitates re-ignition of the welding arc;
- helps save other consumables, such as copper tips.
Automatic wire welding
The combination of these features allows us to weld strong and durable seams, with high-quality edge penetration, uniform in composition and with a minimum of porosity and other defects.
Application area
SV08G2S is widely used in machine-building industries, shipbuilding, for various repair work - wherever it is necessary to weld parts made of carbon steel alloys for general purposes. It is gaining popularity among owners of small auto repair shops and simply among home craftsmen.
Copper-clad wire is deservedly popular. The copper layer promotes increased conductivity due to reduced resistance at the point of contact. This property significantly increases the stability of the electric arc and increases the strength and, most importantly, durability of the suture material. This occurs due to the suppression of oxidative processes in the weld and heat-affected space.
A wide range of produced sections allows you to select the most suitable welding material for both small or thin-sheet parts, and for massive workpieces and large-sized structures. The two-millimeter model is often used for repairing small items, becoming popular in home workshops. The six-millimeter model is used in industrial settings because it requires powerful current sources.
Semi-automatic wire welding
SV08G2S is used:
- In manual mode in an atmosphere of pure Ar, and also together with CO2 - as an additive. It is introduced into the work area manually, melts and enters the suture material after crystallization. Welding is carried out with a tungsten infusible electrode.
- In semi-automatic welding in an Ar atmosphere.
- As an alloying additive in the weld pool. Flux forms a cloud of protective gases, and slag forms a hard surface that protects the material of the weld pool from oxidation during crystallization.
SV08G2S has the best compatibility with industrial automatic and semi-automatic devices. It helps you manually weld almost any carbon steel with high quality. The seam has excellent geometry and stable chemical composition. Experts especially note the unique properties of the wire for such operations as forming a seam bead and uniformly filling the welding gap between the edges of workpieces.
Deposition coefficient indicator SV08G2S
Surfacing works are used to correct the geometric shape and dimensions of workpieces in case of defects, as well as in a planned manner - to give certain areas of the surface of the product improved physical and mechanical properties. The deposition rate is one of the most important parameters of welding materials.
It characterizes the mass of the melt deposited over a certain period of time at a certain operating current.
Weld seam when welding with wire
The specific value of the coefficient is determined:
- chemical composition of the substance;
- presence of coating (copper-plated/non-copper-plated);
- polarity of the welding current (direct/reverse);
- type of current (AC/DC).
The deposition rate is measured in grams per ampere hour and for SV08G2S cannot fall below 8.5.
The surfacing index affects the technical and economic efficiency of surfacing operations and the amount of metal loss due to spattering and evaporation.
The melting coefficient of the base metal also depends on the deposition rate, which directly affects the strength characteristics and durability of the connection.
Decoding wire markings and its main advantages
The abbreviation Sv-08G2S only at first glance is an incomprehensible set of numbers and letters. It is easy to decipher: the two letters at the beginning of “Sv” mean that this is a welding material. “08” indicates the C content in hundredths of a percent; the letter “G” is established by GOST to indicate Mn. Manganese was added to streamline the crystalline structure of the weld. The following number “2” indicates the content of this element as a percentage. The letter "C" stands for Si, the absence of numbers means that the Si content is less than one percent. This element is added to improve physical and mechanical properties.
Maintaining the proportion of Si to Mn at 0.83 to 1.95 makes it possible to achieve stability of the chemical composition against the background of increased strength and durability of the weld.

The wire also contains the other chemical elements mentioned above, such as nickel, chromium, copper, sulfur and phosphorus. According to GOST requirements, since their content is less than one percent, they are not reflected in the designation.
