Reliable Electrodes That Burn Clean & Hold Strong

When it comes to stick welding, the electrode is everything. Our ITM & WIA Welding Rods (ARC) collection is built for tradies who demand easy arc starts, consistent fusion, and strong mechanical bonds across mild steel, stainless, structural & hardfacing jobs. Whether you're welding on a scaffold, under a ute, or in a fabrication shop—these rods are chosen to perform in dust, wind, moisture & high-vibration sites.

We stock trusted formulations like E6013, E7018, and hardfacing rods, all compliant with AS/NZS and AWS standards. From general repair to coded structural work, these electrodes run smooth with minimal spatter and solid penetration. Preferred by site welders, mechanical contractors, fitters, and field crews, they’re packaged to last—vac-sealed or moisture-resistant cartons.
