Description
Easy to use, high-speed electrode for welding carbon and low alloy steels. Designed to run at higher amperage settings yielding greater deposition efficiency than 6012 or 6013 electrodes. Can be used on small AC as well as large DC machines. Excellent restrike capability, stable arc, low spatter, easy slag removal, and a smooth weld bead with fine ripples are all characteristics of this electrode. For single or multiple-pass applications and in all positions including vertical down and overhead.
Great for bridging over wide root openings created by poor joint fit-ups. Commonly used for tack welding sheet metal or galvanized, rusty, or dirty plate steels. Other uses include ornamental iron, mobile home frames, automobiles and railcars, storage tanks, machine parts, and structural steel for buildings.
