Ideal for maintenance and general repair applications.
Esab 7018 electrodes are perfect for general fabrication and welding offering consistent performance and welder appeal.
7018 mr from lincoln electric is a low hydrogen stick electrode designed for all position welding on mild steel.
The e7018 is a versatile welding rod frequently used for low and medium carbon steel welding.
It is a mild steel rod that is coated with a low hydrogen iron based flux compound that vaporizes to shield the molten weld bead from contamination by air and moisture.
Also referred to as a low hydrogen rod this electrode has a flux coating with a very low hydrogen content allowing a minimal amount of hydrogen into the weld puddle the molten weld beads are protected from contamination moisture and hydrogen in the atmosphere by the iron containing powder.
Measured in thousands of pounds per square inch.
