Flux-cored, stainless, and copper-free wires designed for smooth feeding, consistent arcs, and durable weld strength.

Arc Welding Consumables

Our MMAW consumables include electrodes specially formulated for

Mild Steel

General purpose medium coated electrodes (e.g., E6013 type) for all-position welding with excellent arc stability and smooth slag removal, suitable for fabrications and light structural work.

Low Hydrogen

Low hydrogen electrodes (e.g., E7018) ensure reduced hydrogen content to prevent weld cracking and deliver high tensile strength with sound welds suitable for critical structural applications.

Low Alloy

Electrodes designed for welding low alloy steels, providing toughness and resistance to mechanical stresses.

Stainless Steel

Electrodes that maintain corrosion resistance and mechanical properties in stainless steel welds, available in several grades for diverse environments.
