30701 ROD WELDING AC/DC 3/32INCH 1LB

Description

Overview

Forney 30701 ROD WELDING AC/DC 3/32INCH 1LB (30701) is designed for mild steel fabrication across a range of AC and DC welding applications, including field erections, structural steel, frames, trailer hitches, and chassis work.

Technical Features

• AWS E7018 Classification: Confirms a standardized low-hydrogen electrode meeting defined tensile strength requirements, ensuring consistent, code-compliant weld deposits.
• 84,000 PSI Tensile Strength: Delivers structurally sound welds suited to load-bearing mild steel fabrication such as frames, chassis, and structural steel connections.
• Low Hydrogen Formulation: Reduces moisture absorption in the coating, minimizing the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking in finished weld joints.
• Dual Current Compatibility (AC / DCEP): Operates on both smaller-amperage DC welders and higher-amperage AC machines, broadening compatibility across common job-site equipment.
• 65100 Amp Operating Range: The narrow, controlled amperage band supports precise heat input management on the 3/32 in. electrode diameter.
• Shallow Penetration Profile: Limits burn-through risk on thinner mild steel sections, producing a controlled, clean weld bead.
• 3/32 in. Diameter / 15.2 in. Length: Standard electrode dimensions compatible with conventional electrode holders used in shop and field environments.

Applications

• Field erection of structural steel components
• Steel frames and structural assemblies
• Trailer hitches and chassis fabrication
• General mild steel fabrication of all types
