Forney 30689 Stick Electrode, 84000 psi Tensile Strength, Applicable Materials: Mild Steel

Produce quality results on smaller amperage AC/DC welders. Low hydrogen content reduces cracking and peeling of the weld material. Features excellent restart capability. Designed for welding low, medium and high-carbon steels as well as some higher strength low alloy steel. For frames, trailer hitches and chassis. Recommended Polarities are AC, DCEN, DCEP (either polarity). 5/32 in Dia, weight 5 lb (2.26 kg), 84000 psi tensile strength, 140 to 190 A.

Has applicable materials Mild Steel, tensile strength 84000 psi, type General-Purpose.

Application

For chassis, frames and trailer hitches

• E7018 AC mild steel "Low hydrogen" welding rods easily produce quality results on smaller amperage AC/DC welders
• Suitable for all positions on hardenable steels where no preheat is used and on cold-rolled steels normally exhibiting excessive porosity when welded with conventional rod
• The low hydrogen content reduces cracking and peeling of the weld material
• Features excellent restart capability
• Designed for welding low, medium and high-carbon steels as well as some higher strength low alloy steel
