Lincoln Excalibur® 7018 MR® Stick (SMAW) Electrode, 5/32″ × 14″, 50 lb Easy-Open Can
Product Description
Get dependable low-hydrogen welding performance with the Lincoln Electric Excalibur® 7018 MR® Stick Welding Electrode. Designed for mild steel welding applications, this 5/32-inch electrode combines a smooth, stable arc with excellent weld-bead characteristics, making it a valuable choice for professional welders, fabrication shops, contractors, and industrial maintenance teams.
Classified as AWS E7018 H4R, the Excalibur 7018 MR is engineered to provide controlled arc performance, good weld-toe wetting, and a consistent bead profile. Its moisture-resistant coating is designed to help limit moisture pickup when the electrodes are stored and handled according to Lincoln Electric’s recommendations.
The 5/32″ × 14″ electrode size is suitable for applications where a larger electrode and higher deposition rate are appropriate for the joint and welding procedure. Supplied in a 50 lb easy-open can, this package provides a practical quantity for fabrication and repair work.
Key Features and Benefits
- AWS E7018 H4R classification: A low-hydrogen electrode for applications requiring the appropriate E7018 consumable.
