• E7018 Low Hydrogen Welding Rods: e7018 is a low-hydrogen iron powder type electrode that produces X-ray welds; It can be applied for all-position welding under AC or DC reverse polarity welding current; The electrode storage tube is designed to hold 10 pounds of electrodes
• Smooth Arc Start & Ac/ Dc All-position Performance: designed for stable arc control, easy re-striking, and minimal spatter, delivering clean, professional weld beads with less cleanup; Suitable for all-position welding ( flat, vertical, overhead) under AC or DC reverse polarity, with a recommended current range of 115A–165A, making it reliable for both jobsite and workshop use
• Moisture-proof Storage Tube Included: comes with a heavy-duty red storage tube to keep your low hydrogen rods protected, dry, and ready to use— reducing the risk of porosity and hydrogen cracking
• Ideal for Structural Steel, Repairs & Fabrication: nice for welding mild steel, low-alloy steel, equipment repair, frames, brackets, and general construction projects where strong, crack-resistant welds are required
• Precautions: before welding, the electrode must be baked at 350-380°C for 1 hour and used immediately after baking; All impurities such as rust, oil, and moisture on the workpiece must be removed prior to welding; During welding, use a short arc and minimize the weaving width, favoring narrow bead welding; To prevent arc-striking porosity, employ a run-on tab or the strike-and-return technique for arc initiation
