Hampdon Industrial stocks the premium range of Magmaweld Basic Coated Electrode – Non Alloyed Steels. Similar to the E7016 , the E7018 Low hydrogen electrode has less and an addition of iron powder to the flux. E7018 is an efficient, general purpose, low hydrogen electrode used for welding carbon steels. 7018 has a very good deposition rate, providing a quiet steady arc with low spatter and medium penetration. Often used for fill passes on butt welds, the deposits are of X-ray quality with easy slag removal, exceptional mechanical properties and a smooth uniform bead appearance.

Welding Position Applications:

PA – Flat Position: Welding is performed from the upper side of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
PB – Horizontal Position: The welding is done on the horizontal surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
PC – Vertical Position: Welding is carried out on the vertical surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately vertical.
PD – Overhead Position: Welding is performed from the underside of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
PE – Horizontal/Vertical Position: This position is a combination of horizontal and vertical welding. The joint can be both in the horizontal and vertical planes.
PF – 4G Position: This is a groove weld performed on the outside surface of a pipe or cylinder in a fixed vertical position.
