E XX X X
E= Electrode
First two ….. XX = tensile strength of weld metal in ksi or N/mm2 (psi/ 145 to N/mm2)
Third…… X = Welding position
Fourth…. X = Coating composition
E7018 70 ksi >>> 70 000 psi (480 N/mm2)
Welding position
1 – All position [flat, horizontal, vertical (uphill), overhead ]
2 – Flat & horizontal (fillet weld)
3- Not in use
4 – Vertical (downhill)
Coating Composition
1. 2/3/4 Rutile Electrode (titania)
2. Produce shallow penetration
3. Suitable sheet metal work
4. Weld-low toughness
1. 0/1 cellulose electrode (cellulose sodium/potassium)
2. Produce deep penetration
3. Suitable for root pass
4. Not suitable for high carbon steel/ high tensile steel
5. Electrode contain higher amount of moisture (H2O)
