AWS E7018-1 Welding Electrode

Application

These electrodes are suitable for multipass welding of up to 1 in (25mm) thick steel. They are designed for use with ac, dcen, or dcep. While 3/16 in (5.0mm) and smaller diameter electrodes can be used for all welding positions (except vertical welding position with downward progression), the use of larger diameter electrodes should be limited to the flat or horizontal fillet welding position. When welding in vertical welding position with upward progression, weaving should be limited to minimize undercut.
