Cigweld Ferrocraft 61 – 4.0mm 7018 Low Hydrogen Electrode
Premium Low Hydrogen Stick Electrode for Structural & General Fabrication Welding
Cigweld Ferrocraft 61 is a high-quality, low hydrogen (E7018 / E4918) manual metal arc welding (MMAW/SMAW/stick welding) electrode, engineered for welders who need strong, crack-resistant, X-ray quality welds on medium to heavy-section steel. The 4.0mm diameter makes it ideal for structural steel fabrication, workshop repairs, pipe welding, and general engineering applications where weld integrity and mechanical strength are critical.
Key Features:
- AWS Classification: E7018 (low hydrogen potassium type electrode)
- Diameter: 4.0mm — suited to medium-to-heavy gauge steel and multi-pass welding
- Low Hydrogen Coating: Minimises the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking, porosity, and weld defects, delivering sound, ductile welds
- Smooth, Stable Arc: Easy strike and re-strike characteristics with minimal spatter for a clean weld finish
- Excellent Mechanical Properties: High tensile strength and impact toughness, suitable for structural and load-bearing joints
- Self-Peeling Slag: Fast, easy slag removal speeds up productivity between passes
- All-Positional Use: Suitable for flat, horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead welding positions
Common Applications:
- Structural steel fabrication and construction
- Boiler and pressure vessel welding
- Heavy earthmoving and mining equipment repairs
- General workshop, engineering, and maintenance welding
- Pipe and plate welding where high strength welds are required
Recommended Uses: Ideal for welders and fabricators needing a reliable, code-quality electrode for critical structural welds, on-site repairs, or fabrication of heavy-duty steel components. Performs well on mild and medium-tensile steels.
