Hobart 770474 7018Ac Stick, 1/8-5lbs

Not a product review but ordered from Hobart store to get the wrong product twice..Now I'm behind on a project. As you can see from the paper label attached I ordered Hobart 770474 7018Ac Stick, 1/8-5lbs but what I received twice now are Hobart 770462 6011 Stick, 5/32-5 lbs. Thought right product was in the box but 6011 is printed on the sticks as well. Come on, take your time and get the order right.

The product was damaged upon arriving. About a third of the rods were unusable.

I am a die-hard miller fan. I currently own a Syncrowave 350 LX and a Millermatic 350P. It looks as though Hobart is now owned by Miller and I supposed that they would have the same quality standard as Miller. Unfortunately, this is not the case.I bought three 10 lb boxes. One of which was on backorder - I have subsequently cancelled that order - but I've burned the other two boxes. These rods suck. I kept them in an oven at 250 degrees. I even baked them for an hour at 600 degrees right out of the package just in case. I still struggled with excessive spatter and porosity in the starts and stop. After cursing these rods, I burned in some RUSTY! 7018 rods from an unknown manufacturer and didn't have a lick of trouble.If you did buy these rods, you can overcome some of the difficulty by dilligently long-arcing at the begining and end of every weld but if you haven't bought them, do yourself a favor and get a quality rod.

I always use Hobart welding sticks, unfortunately no one locally carries them anymore so thankfully I can still get them on Amazon
