HYW E7024 Stick Electrodes are a high-deposition, iron-powder “drag” rod built for fast, high-production welding in the flat and horizontal-fillet positions, supplied in a convenient 10 lb box. The heavy iron-powder coating lets the electrode be dragged along the joint for smooth, high-speed beads with deep, uniform fill and easy self-peeling slag — ideal for heavy plate and repetitive fillet work.
