SIF SIFTRODE 7016 Special Mild Steel Electrode — 2.5mm
It's a low-hydrogen mild steel MMA (stick) electrode with a double rutile-basic coating, ideal for pipelines and steel construction. It handles joint penetrations and welding in difficult positions well.
It's available in 2.5mm, 3.2mm and 4.0mm diameters, so you can match the rod to your material thickness and current setting.
Low-hydrogen electrodes reduce the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking, which matters on higher-strength and thicker mild steel joints. This makes them a common choice for structural and pipeline work.
The double coating gives a stable, concentrated and direct arc for smooth, clean joints, and it has a 100-second re-ignition capability. That combination makes it forgiving to run in awkward positions.
The listed website weight for this electrode is 1.5kg.
