Product Description
The Royal – 7016 (W) E7016 Low Hydrogen Type Electrodes are designed for high-performance welding applications. These electrodes are specifically formulated to provide excellent arc stability, low spatter, and minimal hydrogen content, making them ideal for welding high-strength steels and other critical applications. The E7016 designation indicates that these electrodes are suitable for use in both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) welding processes. The low hydrogen content helps to prevent hydrogen-induced cracking, ensuring the integrity and durability of the welds.
These electrodes are characterized by their smooth operation and ease of use, making them suitable for both professional welders and those new to the craft. The Royal – 7016 electrodes are versatile and can be used in various positions, including flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead. They are particularly effective in applications where high tensile strength and impact resistance are required.
