TAURUS PRO LOW HYDROGEN ELECTRODE 7018-1 H4R (VP ALUMINIUM CAN) (5Kg)TAURUS PRO 7018-1 are stored in a hermetically sealed vacuum packed aluminum container to keep the electrodes dry. It is a basic-coated hydrogen-controlled electrode for high mechanical-property requirements and crack resistance. Suitable for crack resistant joint welding on higher carbon steels. The double coating provides very stable arc characteristics with excellent all position weldability. Low spatter loss, ready slag detachment and regular bead appearance. COD tested for offshore applications.WELDING POSITIONS • Flat• Horizontal• Vertical up• OverheadCLASSIFICATIONS AWS A5.1 E 7018-1 H4R EN ISO 2560-A-E 46 4 B 12 H5
