The article presents the results of tests concerning the effect of the direction of the rolling of plates made in steel 0H18N9 on welding distortions. The research-related analysis was concerned with the rolling direction in relation to the longer edge of specimens. The specimens were welded using the MAG method involving the use of pulsed arc. The acquisition of surface flatness-related data was performed using a GOM ATOS 5M blue light scanner. The analysis of the results revealed that the mean surface flatness of the specimens was similar in relation to all of the rolling directions related to analysis. However, the direction of distortions parallel and perpendicular to the weld varied depending on the direction of rolling.
