E = Electrode
70 = 70 thousand tensile strength
1 = All position welding
8 = lime-floridecoating,iron powder,bonded with sodium silicate(Flux)
60 means it has a tensile strength (like pulling it apart) of 60,000 lbs per square inch, 1 means it can be used in all positions (flat, horizontal, vertical, overhead), 18 tells you what type of coating (you have to look at a chart) and that it can be used with either AC or DC Current. 60 1 18
8 is the chemical composition of the flux coating. In this case, a low hydrogen classification of electrode. Best resource for any electrode would be to contact the specific manufacturer of said electrode.

E - Stands for Electrode 60 - 60,000 tensile strength. 1 - in all position welding can be done 0 - cellulose
how do you calculate welding electrode consumption
shielded metal are welding is also called
350degree
A tubular or wire cored electrode is used for both MIG and MAG welding. These can be purchased online at places like AGA.com.
The designation E6011 means: E=electrode 60=60,00p.s.i.tensile strength as deposited 1= all position 1=coating make up
E stands for Electrode,70 stands for tensile strength,1 stands for position of welding that is for all positions 8 stands for flux coating.
There is a coating on electrode. It absorb moisture from an atmosphere. To remove moisture from it, we have to back that electrode up to 300 ' C. If we dont heat this electrode, there is a chance to get discontinuity in welding. Ketan Baraiya
Low Hydrogen? It is a welding electrode that has controlled Hydrogen levels for use in SMAW i.e E7018. Not to be confused with a low hydrogen processes like GMAW and GTAW
Consumable electrode welding contain the processes where the electrode acts as the filler material and the electrode that generates the arc. Because the electrode is also the filler material, the electrode 'burns' or is consumed, hence consumable electrode.
E - Stands for Electrode 60 - 60,000 tensile strength. 1 - in all position welding can be done 0 - cellulose
E stands for electrode,70 is the tensile strength,1 is for all positions of welding,8 AC or DC reverse polarity and 18 also combine for lime flouride coatings.
Shielded Metal Arc Welding, commonly called Stick welding. A shielded electrode passes a current between itself and the workpiece. Both the base-metal and the electrode are melted by the current and the electrode is consumed and deposited into the melted puddle forming the weldment.

shielded metal arc welding use to electrode metal
I have experience when my team welded "JIG Ladle" A36 to AISI 4140, we used electrode E7018 with SMAW process. The important thing for this welding's prehating during welding min. 180 degree celcius and did peening the weld beads to minimize residual stresses. After welding covered by blanket for slow cooling. Regards, Asep S (asep93st@yahoo.com)
E7018 is a shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) electrode. 'E' stands for electrode. '70' stands for 70000 psi minimum as welded tensile strength. '1' designates the position the electrode can be welded in, in this case all positions. '8' classifies that the electrode is a low hydrogen electrode and contains a higher amount of iron powder.
