A Study of the Weldability and Weld Related Microstructure of Cabot Alloy 214 M.J. CIESLAK, J.J. STEPHENS, and M. J. CARR The weldability and weld metal microstructure of Cabot Alloy 214 have been investigated with a variety of experimental and analytical techniques. These include Varestraint hot crack testing, hot ductility testing, pulsed Nd:YAG laser welding, scanning and analytical electron microscopy, electron microprobe analysis, and X-ray diffraction. A heat of Alloy 214 containing intentionally alloyed B (0.003 wt pct) and Zr (0.07 wt pct) was much more sensitive to both fusion zone hot cracking as quantified by the Varestraint test and to simulated heat-affected-zone (HAZ) cracking as quantified by hot ductility testing than a heat of Alloy 214 containing no intentionally added B (0.0002 wt pct) or Zr (
