Description
STARTECHWELD Stick Electrodes 7018, the most efficient general purpose, iron powder-low hydrogen welding electrode for your welding needs. Crafted with quality materials, this electrode is designed for welding carbon steels, free-machining steels, and low alloy steels with a minimum yield strength of 50,000 psi. Our 7018 welding electrode offers exceptional performance with a very good deposition rate, providing a quiet and steady arc with low spatter and medium penetration. Weld deposits are of X-ray quality, ensuring easy slag removal, exceptional mechanical properties, and a smooth, uniform bead appearance.
This electrode is ideal for welding low alloy steel where welds are subject to X-ray inspection. It has excellent operator appeal and may be used in any position with AC or DC (reverse polarity), offering you the flexibility and versatility you need to tackle any welding project. Our Stick Electrodes 7018 comes in a 3/16" size, 10Ibs, and 1 pack welding rods vacuum seal package, ensuring the quality and integrity of the product. With a specification of ANSI/AWS A5.1 & ASME SFA 5.1 E7018, you can trust that our welding electrode meets the highest standards of quality and performance.
