Abstract: A welded member includes a hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheet as a base material and has excellent corrosion resistance and weld bead shear strength. In the welded member in which a lower sheet and an upper sheet, which are hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheets, are stacked and arc-welded together, a weld bead is formed so that a cross-sectional width W satisfies the following formula 2T?W?6T, and a blowhole occupancy Br represented by the following formula becomes not more than 50%: Br=(?di/L)×100, where T represents a thickness of the hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheet, di represents a length of an i-th blowhole observed in X-ray radiography, and L represents a length of the weld bead.

Abstract: Hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheets (1, 1?) are arc-weld in such a way that (a) a current waveform is a pulsed current waveform in which (i) a peak current and a base current alternate with each other at a pulse period of 1 ms to 50 ms and (ii) an average welding current is 100 A to 350 A and (b) an average welding voltage is 20 V to 35 V. Each of the hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheets (1, 1?) includes a coating layer that contains Zn as a main component and that contains Al at a concentration of 1.0% by mass to 22.0% by mass, and has a coating weight W of 15 g/m2 to 250 g/m2.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for MIG brazing an Al alloy to a steel sheet so as to manufacture a lap joint member that excels in bonding strength with respect to the Al alloy. With the MIG brazing method, a bonding target sheet, specifically, an Al sheet or an Al alloy sheet is bonded to a hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheet (1) whose coating layer contains Al in an amount of 1.0% by mass to 22.0% by mass. A target location of MIG brazing is a region between (i) an intersection (C) of one end of an end surface (6) of the bonding target sheet and the hot dip Zn-based alloy coated steel sheet and (ii) the other end (U) of the end surface of the bonding target sheet.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a TIG-welded stainless steel tube without adding H2 to a shielding gas, while inhibiting generation of a weld defect. The method is a method for producing a TIG-welded stainless steel tube and includes the steps of bending a stainless steel strip in a width direction so as to butt both edges against each other and TIG-welding the both edges thus butted. A pulse waveform of a pulse frequency of 40 Hz to 300 Hz is used as a current waveform of a welding power source.
