On the analysis of last researches dedicated an increase of welding constructions technological strength with periodical effect on weld pool melt its established insufficiency knowledge about influence on formation of weld metal by oscillations with frequency range up to 5 Hz. Based on this, the result of researches is presented of the influence of harmonic mechanical trans-verse weld pool oscillations with a frequency of 2.5–4.5 Hz and an amplitude of 0.003–0.007 m ranges to formation of crystallite size and the microstructural components of weld metal obtained by GMAW with feeding of a low alloyed melting wire onto a base of construction medium carbon steel. The crystallite size analysis is got on the contour graphs base of crystallite size dependence from oscillations parameters and parameters of technological mode: $\nu$—frequency; $A$—amplitude; $V$—surfacing speed and $I$—amperage of arc current. This dependence is model obtained by least squares method of regression analysis by the plan of experiments by ‘Latin squares’ method. Amplitude–frequency characteristics influence to a formation of structural components of weld metal microstructure is researched by the optical microscopy methods. Amplitude–frequency characteristics influence to a formation of structural components of weld metal microstructure which are contributed to increase of weld metal hardness value is researched, the influence of crystallite size value on weld metal hardness, as well. The importance of this work is in formation trends to get of maximum effective welded metal microstructure with minimum material and energy resources and simplicity construction of an installation for surfacing mechanized as well.

Key words: arc surfacing, weld pool oscillations, crystallites size.
