Washington Alloy Co. USA 11018M

Specifications AWS A5.5 Class E11018M Description USA 11018M low hydrogen, iron powder electrodes are used for fast, efficient deposition of weld metal with mechanical properties equal to or exceeding that of the base metal. This electrode produces X-ray quality weld deposits with medium penetration and easy slag removability. Although USA 11018M electrodes may be used in any position, they are particularly suited for horizontal and downhand welding with either AC or DC (reverse polarity). Applications USA 11018M electrodes were designed for welding quenched and tempered steels with tensile strengths of up to 110,000 psi such as ASTM A514 and A517, HY80, T-1, SSS-100, etc.
