About Forney 30689 E7018 AC Welding Rod, 5/32-Inch, 5-Pound
The Forney 30689 7018 AC Mild Steel Low Hydrogen Welding Rod produces quality results on lower amperage welders. Suitable for all positions on hard enable steels without pre-heating. Good for cold rolled steels that do not react well with conventional rod. Low hydrogen content reduces cracking and peeling of weld material. 5/32-Inch ie.3.96 mm diameter rod. 5-Pounds ie.2.26 kg. Tensile strength 70,000 PSI. Amperage 125-220 Amps AC, DCEP, DCEN Either Polarity. Typical Spec Example E6011: E is for electrode. The next two numbers ie.60, 70 or 80 indicates the tensile strength of the rod for example 60,000. The third number tells the welding position; ie.1=All position ie.2=Flat or Horizontal position ie.4=Flat, Horizontal, Overhead and Vertical Down position. The fourth number indicates the type of current to be used and coating of the rod; ie.0=Cellulose Sodium, with deep penetration, use Direct Current Electrode Positive ie.1=Cellulose Potassium, with deep penetration, use AC or Direct Current Electrode Positive, or Direct Current Electrode Negative ie.3=Titania Potassium, with light penetration, use AC or Direct Current Electrode Positive ie.8=Low Hydrogen, Iron Powder, with medium penetration use AC or Direct Current Electrode Positive. Proof of purchase required. neglect, negligence or accident, or that has been used in any way contrary to the purpose intended.
