Would love to assist. WHat exactly do you mean by 6044 steel? That nomenclature is not known to me.

Wet and flour inside: Pesuming that 6044 steel is not stainless, the issue of galvanic corrosion is very likely.

Personally, if for a manufacturing process to make things in volumes, I would investigate friction. inertial welding if this is like two pieces of bar for a mixer.

I'll let others comment on welding.

Nazifcevhan, please provide analysis of the stainless and the 6044 to elicit better answers from others qualiffied to answer.

There is no way you can patch it till it is empty then weld ?

if you unse "normal" steel wich may be afected by rust in food industy you make a big mistake( i think you dont want to eat rust-bread or cooky)

regarding that environment ful of flour you better clean the space first if you don't want to become an premature ange:D

take care and provide some stainless steel for your welding

Should describe your plan better to picture your plan better.

I would recommend you to use stainless welding rod as I wouldn't trust the carbon steel rod in the long run on stainless vessel (Is it?).

If the weld is exposed to high physical stresses then some sort of post heat treatment might be appropriate or increase the weld contact area by using gussets between the parent metals.

Be careful because flour dust is highly flammable!!!

thanks for your reply. we are manufacturing roller mill ( grinding machine). for food endustry we are going to use stainless where the flour tuoch. the sheet thickness is 8 mm so if we use this sheet with stainless it is quite expensive so i want to use 7 mm 6044 steel and 1 mm stainless. and also there is nothing on it when welding.

Are you using the 1mm as cladding on the inside of the 7mm tank (container)?

I think it is a VG idea for cost saving exercise just having the 1mm stainless and the tensile streng should still be good.

The 8mm stainless would definately be an overkill.

Couldn't you buy cladded carbon steel with stainless for that reason?

yes i am going to use it as cladding. there is no force or load on it. only prevent flour for laws. so i have to save cost. is it clear now?
