HYW E7014 Premium Arc Stick Electrodes combine the easy handling of a rutile rod with the higher deposition of an iron-powder coating, supplied in a 50 lb hermetically sealed steel can. The result is a smooth, fast arc that runs on AC or DC, fills gaps and poor fit-up with ease, and lays down clean 70,000 psi welds in all positions — well suited to high-production single- and multi-pass fabrication.

Packaging & Storage
Each can is hermetically sealed at the factory to keep electrodes dry and ready to weld. After opening, store the can in a clean, dry environment and reseal between uses to preserve performance.
Recommended amperage ranges are general guidelines; optimal settings vary with base-metal thickness, joint design, and welding position.
