Technical selection before purchase

Do not select an industrial welding electrode by code alone.

Two electrodes with similar nominal strength may differ significantly in coating, polarity, arc behavior, welding position, hydrogen control and storage. The AWS code should be reviewed together with the base metal and project WPS.

01

Base metal and strength

Define the steel grade, thickness and required mechanical properties.

02

Welding conditions

State position, polarity, root or fill pass and equipment limitations.

03

Service conditions

Consider temperature, corrosion, impact, stress and inspection requirements.

03Initial comparison

Project-based selection

Compare common classifications by application and base metal.

For procurement, compare the full classification with the application, base metal, welding position, polarity, diameter and handling requirements. This is a starting point; final selection must follow the WPS, manufacturer data sheet and procurement specification.

Frequently asked questions

Before sending an enquiry

Concise answers to common electrode purchasing and selection questions.

Download full catalogue ↗
01What information is required for an electrode quotation?

Send the full AWS classification, diameter, quantity, package type, delivery location and required date. If the classification is not final, include the base metal, welding position and project WPS.

02What is the main difference between E6010 and E7018?

E6010 is a high-penetration cellulosic electrode commonly considered for root passes and pipelines. E7018 is a low-hydrogen electrode used where hydrogen control and defined mechanical properties are important.

03How do E7016 and E7018 differ?

Both are low-hydrogen families, but coating characteristics, deposition behavior, operating conditions and handling requirements differ. Selection should be checked against the WPS and project specification.

04How is electrode diameter selected?

Plate thickness, joint type, welding position, pass size and the available amperage range all matter. A larger diameter is not automatically better and should match the welding procedure.

05How should E7018 electrodes be stored?

They should remain dry and be handled according to the manufacturer instructions. Re-drying and holding conditions depend on the brand, procurement specification and moisture exposure.

06Which electrodes are considered for 304 stainless steel and dissimilar joints?

E308L-16 is commonly considered for 304 and 304L, while E309L-16 is often evaluated for stainless-to-carbon-steel joints. Final selection depends on the base metals and service conditions.

07Can products be selected from a WPS?

Yes. Send the AWS classification, base metal, process, polarity, welding position and impact or temperature requirements so available options can be checked against the project specification.

08Are fixed prices displayed online?

No. Price and delivery depend on classification, diameter, packaging, quantity and current availability, and are confirmed after reviewing the enquiry.
