As they are classified in low alloyed steel groups, in consequence of the cheapness of these alloys their consumption is increasing as well. In this work; 15mm of S235 structural steel is submerged arc welded by 2 types of welding fluxes. The effects of flux composition on microstructural and mechanical properties of welded S235 steel alloy are examined. Micro-vickers hardness surveys of base metal and heat affected zones with weld metals, transverse tensile tests and micro-structural investigations are applied for comparison of these two types of welding fluxes.}, number={2}, publisher={Tayfun UYGUNOĞLU}
