Böhler 7018 h4r en

Böhler 7018 H4R is a basic electrode for high-quality welds with high strength and low hydrogen content. It can be used in all positions for welding steels with low purity and high carbon content, including offshore construction. The electrode produces welds with tensile strength over 490 MPa, yield strength over 400 MPa, elongation over 22%, and impact values over 27 Joules at -30°C. Welding parameters include AC or DC current, amperage between 70-340A depending on electrode diameter, and keeping a short arc.
