03Technical description

E8018-C2 Nickel Electrode is a SoldaForce electrode for welding nickel steels and components requiring toughness in cold service according to procedure. It is intended for industrial buyers who need to identify the correct consumable by classification, material and application, without confusing it with related catalog references. The filler material or family is nickel low-alloy steel, and its key difference is its nickel alloying for toughness, different from E8018-C3 with lower nickel content. Its normative reference is AWS A5.5 E8018-C2, used as the consumable classification; the final application must be tied to the WPS, base metal and required inspection. For an accurate quote, provide the required diameter, packaging, quantity, base metal, welding position, joint type, expected inspection and whether the job has a qualified procedure. We do not publish single amperage, hardness or strength parameters out of context because they depend on the manufacturer's data sheet, diameter, polarity, preparation, storage, welder technique and actual service conditions.

The values in this table are nominal reference data. Before using them in engineering decisions, review the technical notice at the end of this page and your project's welding procedure specification (WPS).

Use recommendations

  • Keep the electrode dry, control base metal temperature according to procedure and protect the weld bead from unintended rapid cooling.
  • Confirm that the AWS or DIN classification, diameter and packaging match the purchase order or welding procedure.
  • Keep electrodes dry and protected; for low hydrogen, follow the storage and redrying defined by the data sheet or WPS.
  • Clean the base metal, bevel, rust, grease and slag between passes to reduce porosity and inclusions.
  • Do not substitute one classification for another only because it is available; validate equivalence with engineering or the welding inspector.

04Frequently asked questions

What is the price of e8018-c2 nickel low temperature electrode?

The price depends on diameter, packaging, brand when applicable, quantity and availability. SoldaForce quotes with those details to avoid sending the wrong consumable.

How is it different from E8018-C3 electrode?

E8018-C2 is specified for steels and services that require more demanding nickel content; E8018-C3 covers another composition and is not changed without a WPS.

How is it installed or used correctly?

Keep the electrode dry, control base metal temperature according to procedure and protect the weld bead from unintended rapid cooling.

What information should I send for a quote?

Send AWS or DIN classification, diameter, kilograms or packaging, brand if applicable, base metal, welding position, city and whether the project requires a certificate.

Can I change it for a similar classification?

It should not be done without reviewing the WPS, base metal, required properties, polarity, heat treatment and approval from the technical lead.

Does SoldaForce dispatch to other cities?

Yes. SoldaForce dispatches to Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla and other cities in Colombia depending on availability and carrier.
