SAE AMS 6461K-2001 (SAE AMS6461K-2001)

Steel, Welding Wire 0.95Cr 0.20V (0.28-0.33C) (SAE 6130) Vacuum Melted, Environment Controlled Packaging ( Reaffirmed: Feb 2006 )

his specification has been declared ?NONCURRENT? by the Aerospace Materials Division, SAE, as of March, 2008. It is recommended, therefore, that this specification not be specified for new designs. ?NONCURRENT? refers to those specifications which have previously been widely used and which may be required for production or processing of existing designs in the future. The Aerospace Materials Division, however, does not recommend these specifications for future use in new designs. This specification covers a low-alloy steel in the form of welding wire. This wire has been used typically as filler metal for gas-tungsten-arc and gas-metal-arc welding of critical weldments of low-alloy steels where the joint is capable of being heat treated to 180 ksi (1241 MPa) minimum tensile strength, but usage is not limited to such applications.
