Forney Industries E7018; Stick Electrode; 1/8 in x 10 Pound

Features and Benefits:

• 7018; 1/8"" low hydrogen welding rod is ideal for field erections; steel structures; frame; trailer hitches and chassis



E7018 mild steel low hydrogen welding electrodes easily produce quality results on smaller amperage DC; or higher amperage AC welders. Use for field erections; steel structures; frames; trailer hitches and chassis. Product Specifications: * Recommended polarity DCEP (reverse) or AC * Diameter: 1/8"" (3.175 millimeters) * Weight: 10 lbs. (4.53 kg) * Tensile strength: 84;000 PSI * Amperage: 100-140 * Not recommended for use with low open circuit-voltage OCV power sources Product Features: OUT OF POSITION WELDING* This welding rod is suitable for all positions on hardenable steels where no preheat is used; and on cold rolled steels normally exhibiting excessive porosity when welded with conventional rod. LOW HYDROGEN * The low hydrogen content of these electrodes reduces cracking and peeling of the weld material. MULTIFUNCTIONAL * These electrodes are also ideal for tack welding; and for projects that involve difficult steels to weld (thick sections; restrained joints with cracking issues; etc.).
