E7018 Stick (SMAW) Electrode

7018 is a high deposition covered electrode for low and medium carbon steels. It is an efficient, iron powder, low hydrogen covered electrode with excellent mechanical properties, crack resistance and x-ray quality welds. This covered electrode offers a quiet, stable, low penetration, spatter-free arc. The moderately heavy slag is easy to remove, revealing a bead with distinct ripples. Operator appeal is a plus factor.
