<p>ISO 17641-2:2005 specifies the required specimens, the test piece dimensions and the procedures to be followed to carry out self-restraint hot cracking tests.</p>
<p>The following tests are described:</p>
<ul><li>T-joint weld cracking test;</li><li>weld metal tensile test;</li><li>longitudinal bend test.</li></ul>
<p>The tests are designed to provide information about the hot cracking sensitivity of weld metals. The tests are not suitable for the assessment of parent materials.</p>
<p>This International Standard applies primarily to fully austenitic stainless steels; nickel, nickel-base and nickel-copper weld metals. It can also be used for other weld metals.</p>
<p>ISO 17641-2:2005 describes only how to carry out the tests and report the results. It does not give any acceptance criteria.</p>
