1/8" Dia. x 14" Length Low Hydrogen/Low Alloy, 10 lb Tube, 86000 psi Tensile

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. Washington Alloy 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 with 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).Applications: Piping Cold Rolled Steels Heavy Machinery Fabrications Fired and Unfired Pressure Vessels Shop and Field Welding of Bridges and Structural Steels Cast Steels Shipbuilding
