Sale
HYW E7018 Premium Arc Stick Electrodes are a low-hydrogen, iron-powder rod engineered for high-strength, crack-resistant structural welds, supplied in a 50 lb hermetically sealed steel can that delivers them dry and ready to weld. They run smoothly on AC or DC+ and deposit dense, ductile 70,000 psi weld metal that meets demanding code and radiographic requirements — the standard for structural steel, pressure work, and high-restraint joints.
Key Features

Typical Chemical Composition
Typical undiluted all-weld-metal analysis (wt %). Iron is the balance.
The sealed can delivers these low-hydrogen electrodes dry. After opening, store them in a heated rod oven, and redry in accordance with AWS/manufacturer guidelines if they are exposed to moisture, to preserve low-hydrogen weld quality.
Recommended amperage ranges are general guidelines; optimal settings vary with base-metal thickness, joint design, and welding position.
WARNING
This product can expose you to chemicals including manganese, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Welding fumes from this product can also expose you to chemicals known to cause cancer. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
