E7018 5/32" 4.5LB ARC Welding Rod Low Hydrogen Carbon Steel Stick Electrodes

NICETECH E7018 is the most efficient general purpose, iron powder-low hydrogen electrode used for welding carbon steels, free-machining steels and low alloy steels with a minimum yield strength of 50,000 psi. E7018 has a very good deposition rate, providing a quiet steady arc with low spatter and medium penetration. Weld deposits are of X-ray quality and easy slag removal, exceptional mechanical properties and a smooth uniform bead appearance. E7018 has excellent operator appeal and may be used in any position with AC or DC (reverse polarity).

• MODEL: Premium E7018 welding rod series for structural welding metal projects. Designed to outperform standard 6010, 6013, and 6011 welding rods in stability and tensile strength.
• FEATURES: Quiet, steady arc with low spatter and medium penetration for a clean, professional finish. Exceptional operator appeal for welding practice kits, repair work, and heavy-duty steel rod fabrication.
• COMPATIBILITY: Highly versatile welding supplies compatible with any stick welder or professional welding equipment. Suitable for all-position welding with AC or DC (reverse polarity) power sources.
• PERFORMANCE: Excellent deposition rate for reliable structural integrity. Typical procedures (ACEP & DCEP): (Flat) 30-55 Amps, (Vertical/Overhead) 25-50 Amps. (Note: Specialized electrodes for steel; not for aluminum, cast iron, or low-temperature brazing.)
• SPECIFICATION: Diameter: 5/32"; Length: 16"; Net Weight: 4.5 LB.
