ALLOY DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATION;


E7018HR aka E7018 H4R are low hydrogen mild steel electrodes recommended when
controlled diffusible hydrogen levels are needed with and also a low-moisture–absorbing coating
[moisture resistant]. These rods are formulated to have x-ray quality welds with easy slag removal,
excellent welder appeal in any position with both AC and DC+ polarity even on those poor
weldable steels. Welding of piping, cold rolled steels, bridges, shipbuilding, boiler and pressure
applications, power plants and many other fabrications projects.
