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.
This welding rod is suitable for all positions on hardenable steels where no preheat is used
Cold rolled steels normally exhibiting excessive porosity when welded with conventional rod
The low hydrogen content of these electrodes reduces cracking and peeling of the weld material
These electrodes are also ideal for tack welding
For projects that involve difficult steels to weld (thick sections, restrained joints with cracking issues, etc.)
