Ador Welding SUPABASE (E-7018) Mild Steel Electrodes are well-suited for welding mild steel and low alloy steels, offering versatility across various welding applications. With their low hydrogen content, these electrodes are particularly advantageous in scenarios where minimizing the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking is crucial. The E-7018 classification denotes specific electrode characteristics, including a tensile strength of 70,000 psi and suitability for welding in all positions—be it vertical, overhead, or flat.
