ESAB® AtomArc® 7018-B2L Low Alloy Steel Electrode comes with a low carbon analysis and reduces cracking in weldments by featuring determined carbon content in the weld metal and is widely employed in piping, boiler work, castings and forgings. 1/8" Cr-Mo electrode is engineered carefully gives stable arc while welding low alloy steels in the categories of 1/2% Cr-1/2% Mo, 1% Cr-1/2% Mo, 1 1/4% Cr-1/2% Mo steels and meets the specification of AWS A5.5 and ASME SFA 5.5. Electrode requires preheat to weld heavy sections and is used with hardenable steels that prevent hard heat-affected zone formation. Electrode is sold as a 10 lb hermetically sealed container.
Features
It is carefully engineered to produce a stable arc and good slag release when welding low alloy steels
Electrode with sensitivity extra low carbon content
The low carbon content in the weld metal is beneficial in reducing cracking of weldment
