Forney 42463 Stick Electrode, 1/8 in Dia, 15 in L

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. For chassis, field erections, frames, steel structures and trailer hitches Features: - E7018 mild steel "Low hydrogen" welding electrodes easily produces quality results on smaller amperage DC or higher amperage AC 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
