Weldmark® E7018 Electrode – Low-Hydrogen, X-Ray Quality Welds for Structural & Industrial Applications
Deliver strong, clean, and x-ray quality welds with Weldmark® E7018, a low-hydrogen, iron powder electrode designed for all-position welding using AC or DC reverse polarity. Engineered for medium-grade carbon steels, this rod excels where preheat isn’t used and helps reduce porosity in cold-rolled steel applications.
Key Features:
-
X-Ray Quality Welds
Produces clean, defect-free welds that meet the strictest inspection standards for critical applications like power plants and offshore structures. -
Low-Hydrogen Formula
Helps prevent cracking and hydrogen-induced defects, ideal for carbon steel, low alloy, and high-stress welding environments. -
All-Position Welding Performance
Weld confidently in flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead positions with stable arc performance and excellent slag control. -
AC or DC Reverse Polarity
Versatile electrode suitable for a wide range of welding machines and job site conditions. -
Superior for Cold Rolled & Medium Carbon Steels
Reduces porosity and improves weld quality on steels that typically underperform with standard electrodes. -
Recommended Applications:
Perfect for steel structures, tubular wire applications, offshore drilling rigs, power plants, low/medium/high carbon steel, tack welds, and more.
Whether you're fabricating heavy equipment, structural frameworks, or pressure-rated assemblies, the Weldmark® E7018 Electrode offers unmatched reliability, clean bead appearance, and weld integrity for demanding projects.
