BÖHLER Q E 7018

Stick electrode, unalloyed, basic coated

Classifications
EN ISO 2560-A AWS A5.1 / SFA-5.1
E 42 4 B 4 2 H5 E7018 H4 R
Characteristics and typical fields of application
Basic coated electrode engineered for high-quality welds. Excellent strength and toughness properties down to –40ºC. Also suitable for
welding steels with low purity and high carbon content. Metal recovery about 115%. Good weldability in out-of-position work except for
vertical-down. Suitable for welding in steel construction, boiler and container fabrication, vehicle construction, shipbuilding, and machine
construction as well as for buffer layers when building up on high carbon steels. Deposit has very low hydrogen content (according to
AWS condition HD < 4ml/100g weld metal).
Base materials
steels up to a yield strength of 420 MPa (60ksi)
