Description
The Blue Demon E7018/E7018-1 is a top-notch low-hydrogen iron powder electrode. It creates high-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 porosity issues with regular electrodes
- Common uses include low-alloy structures, low to high carbon steels, offshore rigs, and power plants
- Size: 5/32'
To use these Blue Demon electrodes, first make sure your welding machine is set to the right current (AC or DC reverse polarity). You can use them in any welding position. For medium - grade carbon steels, no pre - heating is needed. When working with cold - rolled steels, you'll notice fewer porosity problems compared to using conventional electrodes. As for maintenance, keep the electrodes in a dry place to prevent moisture absorption. And always follow safety rules when welding, like wearing proper protective gear. This will help you get the best results and keep the electrodes in good condition for future use.
