E7018 AC are low hydrogen mild steel electrodes recommended for mild –high carbon base metals when low current or open circuit and small single-phase welders are used. These rods are formulated to have quality welds with very easy slag removal, excellent welder appeal on those poor weldable steels. 7018AC is easy to controlwhich is used often for skip or tack welds providing a stable arc with a flat to slightly convex weld appearance.
