I am currently a student in a welding class at a technical college. I am beginning my stick courses and exploring different rods. I have heard that the 7014 is an over-all excellent rod and was wondering about its characteristics such as the best current to use. I know that the 7018 is best for DC but can be purchased for AC but I am afraid the AC version may be compromising some of the strength of the original DC version. This may not be ture though. I use 7018 on stuff that requires that extra strength and have a DC welder, but I buy the AC version because of the easier arc restarts. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated, but I kind of got off track. What I really want help in is convincing my friend that my 7014 is better than his 6013 which is the only rod that he will buy. Now if anyone disagrees with this, I welcome their comments. I am just basing the question on what I have heard and am going to purchase some 7014's tomorrow to see what I can figure out myself. Some might say this is what I should have done in the first place, but I am inexperienced and know that there are a whole lot of people out there that know more than I do. In advance, Thanks for the time and help everyone. Any comments, information, opinions, or advice is welcome and appreciated.
