Easy to control, and a very stable arc. Superior weld appeal. Use for a variety of steels including low, medium, and high carbon steels, low alloy structures, and high carbon castings. Can be used in AC or DC+. 7018’s typical applications include pressure vessels, cold rolled steels, and structural steels. 70,000 PSI tensile strength. Not recommended for low voltage AC welders. 3/32″ 55-85 operating Amps.
