Product Description
Low‑hydrogen electrodes for structural, fabrication, and repair welding
Weldcote Metals E7018 1/8‑inch carbon steel electrodes are engineered for strong, crack‑resistant welds on carbon steels, free‑machining steels, and low‑alloy steels. They are widely used in structural steel fabrication, equipment repair, pressure pipe work, and applications requiring dependable, code‑quality welds. The 10‑lb package offers a practical quantity for shops, field welders, and maintenance crews.
Product description
These electrodes use an iron‑powder, low‑hydrogen coating that produces a quiet, steady arc with low spatter and medium penetration. Weld deposits are X‑ray quality, with smooth bead appearance and easy slag removal. They operate on AC or DC (reverse polarity) and perform reliably in all welding positions, including vertical and overhead. This makes them a versatile choice for both fabrication and repair environments where consistency and weld integrity matter.
