E7018 Welding Electrodes – BÖHLER FOX Q Low Hydrogen Vacuum-Packed Rods
BÖHLER FOX Q E7018 welding electrodes are premium-quality, low-hydrogen rods engineered for structural and high-strength steel welding. These electrodes are vacuum packed to prevent moisture absorption, ensuring dependable performance in critical weld applications where crack resistance, strength, and arc stability are essential.
Vacuum-Sealed for Maximum Moisture Protection
Moisture is a major threat to weld quality when working with E7018 electrodes. That’s why BÖHLER FOX Q rods are vacuum-packed immediately after production. As a result, the electrodes remain dry and ready to use straight out of the box—no re-baking required. This helps prevent hydrogen-induced cracking and improves weld integrity, especially in demanding industrial settings.
Smooth Arc and Minimal Spatter for Cleaner Results
These E7018 welding electrodes offer excellent arc characteristics with smooth, stable performance. The minimal spatter and easy slag removal reduce post-weld cleanup time, while the fine droplet transfer promotes even fusion and deep penetration. They are perfect for welding heavy plate, pressure vessels, structural beams, and pipelines.
Trusted for Structural, Pipe, and Pressure Vessel Welding
FOX Q E7018 rods are well-suited for both AC and DC current, making them compatible with a wide range of welding machines. Because of their low hydrogen content, they are ideal for projects involving dynamic loads, low-temperature applications, or x-ray quality welds. In addition, the rods are easy to handle in all positions—flat, vertical, overhead, and horizontal.
