1 Scope


This standard applies to manufactured and supply of welding materials, regardless of their type.

This standard establishes requirements for the quality management of welding materials in their manufacture, delivery and sale.

This standard contains rules for manufacturers, suppliers and sellers of welding materials describing the procedures that are in accordance with the objectives in the field of quality make it possible to assess their ability to produce, supply and sell welding materials designed for welding and related processes, in accordance with the established requirements.

This standard can be used as a basis for conformity assessment of quality management systems (including their certification) manufacturers, suppliers and sellers in accordance with the scope of their activities.

This standard can be used in cases where the need to confirm the ability to produce, supply or sell welding materials designed for welding and related processes, for a given level of quality negotiated in one or more of the following documents:

— the contract between the parties;

in product standards;

— the standards used for conformity assessment of welding consumables;

— normative-technical documentation.

This standard contains the requirements to control the manufacturing, delivery and sales of welding materials used in the following cases:

a) when the contract requires the producer, supplier or seller of the quality management system corresponding with the EN ISO 9001 and EN ISO 9002;

b) when it is necessary to consider special requirements for the manufacture, supply and sale of welding materials as guiding requirements for the development of the quality management system manufacturers, suppliers or vendors;

c) when it is necessary to consider special requirements for the manufacture, supply and sale of welding consumables in specifications, standards and other regulatory documents that require the manufacturer, provider or seller of welding materials the availability of the quality management system as the basis for conformity assessment, including certification of welding materials.

The organization is a manufacturer or supplier of welding materials and certified in accordance with EN ISO 9001 and EN ISO 9002, is considered the present standard.
