Defining the susceptibility to hot cracking of Inconel 617 alloy welds is essential for assessment welding and pad welding technology. Because of that technological transvarestraint test was performed in the study. Test simulates strains that form in the material during welding. Transvarestraint test enables the assessment of susceptibility to hot cracking and resistance to hot cracking characterized by cracking threshold (εp) and critical strain speed (CSS). Performed investigations enabled to characterize the phenomena occurring in Inconel 617 during welds crystallization, which are important for engineers selecting the joining technology of Inconel 617.
