Inweld 7018 1/8" X 1LB Low-Hydrogen Electrode

General purpose, all-position electrode for welding carbon steel, free machining steel, high tensile steel, and low alloy steel. Special low-hydrogen iron powder coating produces a quiet steady arc, low spatter and medium arc penetration. High deposition efficiency. X-ray quality weld deposits with a finely rippled smooth bead appearance and easy slag removal. Excellent charpy impact values at sub-zero temperatures (65 ft-lbs at -20°). Typical applications include tramp steels, structural and fabrication steels such as beams, angles, channels and plates, cast steels, process piping steels, cold rolled steel, and shipbuilding steels.
