In this study, it has been reported that Q345B steel combine with different steels using electric arc welding method and the mechanical properties were investigated. Produced by hot rolling processes, Q345B steel is a low-alloyed medium tensile strength and highly usable steel. The steel used contain less than 0.2% carbon and less than 0.55% silicon, chromium and nickel. In this study, Q345B steel generally used at low-pressure/temperature zones in thermal power plant (boiler wall etc.) is combined with 16Mo3 and P265GH steels. The Q345B steel is welded to make the mechanical properties easy to compare. After joining, specimens were collected from the welded areas and used in the preparation of mechanical and metallographic processes. In this process, all joints were subject to tensile, charpy, hardness and bending tests. In addition, the collection of macro images from welding were used in observation of transition zones which were operated. Electrodes with a basic character cover were used (E7018) as filler metal in the joining processes. All mechanical tests met the requirements of the relevant standards and all welds were identified as valid weld.
