Description:

A high deposition electrode for low and medium carbon steels. It is an efficient, iron powder, low hydrogen electrode with excellent mechanical properties that are crack resistant and provide xray quality welds. Conforms to ANSI/AWS A5.1 & ASME SFA 5.1 E7018.

Typical Application:

Ship hull construction, pressure vessels, boilers, piping, heavy duty equipment, general maintenance and/or production fabrication.

Features:

• Tensile strength Up to 81,000 psi
• Yield strength up to 67,700
• Elongation in 2 29.4% minimum
• All position
• Provides a quiet, stable, low penetration, spatterfree arc
• Produces moderate to heavy slag that is easily removed, revealing a bead with distinct ripples
• Operator appeal is a plus factor
