Hi,
I've been told that SS welds should not get grey; IOW, the fillets should be
that yellowish/bluish/iridescent color that only occurs in my weld about 50%
of the time... I know that the grey color indicates too much heat in the
joint (and obviously not enough practice on my part), but I'm interested in
the downside of this. Does the grey color this mean the joint is weaker?
Do we know how much weaker? Any rules of thumb about this? Any references
or guides I should be reading?
