 a. The letters "XX" used in the classification designations in this table stand for the various strength levels (70, 80, 90, 100, 110, and 120) of
 electrodes.
 b. Copper shall be 0.10 % max and aluminum shall be 0.05 % max for E8018-NM electrodes.
 c. Copper shall be 0.30 to 0.60 % for E7018-W electrodes.
 d. Copper shall be 0.30 to 0.75 % for E8018-W electrodes.
 e. Vanadium addition as follows: E806-B5, E8016-C3, E8018-C3, E9018-M, E10018-M, E11018-M, E12018-M and E12018-M1 - 0.05%;
 E8018-NM - 0.02 %; E7018-W - 0.08 %.
 f. In order to meet the alloy requirements of the G group, the weld deposit need have the minimum, as specified in the table, of only one of the
 elements listed. Additional chemical requirements may be as agreed between supplier and purchaser.
 Single values shown are maximum, unless otherwise specified.
