E7016

AWS A5.1 E7016
ASME SFA 5.1 E7016

E7016 is a low hydrogen, all position electrode used for welding heavy duty steel structures and plates. This electrode provides excellent arc stability and produces X-ray quality weld deposits with higher crack resistance, elongation and ductility than other mild steel electrodes.
E7016 yields a beautiful bead appearance with easy slag removability.

Applications:

Typical applications would include strength members of ship hulls, rolling stocks, machinery, bridges, free-cutting steels and medium carbon steels.
