In spite of increasing automation of welding processes, manual welding with covered electrodes is still a common practice. Covered electrodes can be welded with easiest equipment, and nearly every welder is used to working with this welding process. Especially in challenging geological areas such as for pipeline welding and on offshore platforms, or for welding of difficult to access seams in boilers and tanks, stick electrodes are still in heavy use.This basic electrode offers both very good welding characteristics and high mechanical values.nA wide range of approvals allows to use this electrode for qualified welds in nearly all application areasnVery low hydrogen content of HDM < 4 ml/100 gnLow moisture pick upnExcellent impact properties at -50CnMade in AustrianApprovals: TÜV (12451.), ABS, CWB, BV, DNV, GL, CEBÖHLER AWS E7018-1Article #SizeKg/PalletCarton KGSleeve KG814992.0 mm x 250 mm940.8011.22.8815002.5 mm x 350 mm918.4016.44.1815013.2 mm x 350 mm940.8016.84.2815024.0 mm x 450 mm849.6023.65.9815035.0 mm x 450 mm806.4022.45.6854996.0 mm x 450 mm928.0023.25.8
