DETAILS

E7018 is an all position iron powder, low hydrogen, efficient steel electrode that yields a high deposition rate, excellent properties and x-ray quality welds. E7018 exhibits a quiet, stable, crack resistant, spatter- free arc with a moderately heavy slag that is easy to remove revealing a bead with distinct ripples.

Features

  • High deposition electrode for low and medium carbon steels
  • Excellent mechanical properties
  • Produces crack resistant, x-ray quality welds
  • Provides a quiet, stable, low penetration, spatter-free arc
  • Maintenance and repair electrode

Typical Applications

  • Mild steel welding: low alloy structures, piping, pressure vessels, boilers, heavy-duty equipment and shipbuilding
  • General maintenance and fabrication that operates with AC or DCEP.
