Description
The Blue Demon E7018/E7018-1 is an outstanding low-hydrogen iron powder-type electrode. It creates top-quality X-ray welds and can be used in all positions with AC or DC reverse polarity welding current.
- Great for welding medium-grade carbon steels without preheating
- Works well on cold rolled steels that usually have too much porosity when using conventional electrodes
- Common applications include low-alloy structures, low, medium and high carbon steels, offshore rigs, and power plants
- Size: 3/32'
- Dimensions: 14 x 3 x 3 inches
Using these Blue Demon E7018 electrodes is easy. First, make sure your welding machine is set to AC or DC reverse polarity. You can use them in any position for welding. For medium - grade carbon steels, you don't need to preheat the metal. If you're working with cold rolled steels that usually have porosity issues with other electrodes, these ones will work great. When using, keep a steady hand to ensure a good weld. As for maintenance, store the electrodes in a dry place to prevent them from getting wet. If they do get wet, it's best to dry them before use. Also, always follow basic safety rules like wearing protective gear when welding.
