E6011 Welding Rod for Mild Steel (ISO E 43 11 A)
It is suitable for butt welding, Corner joint welding and lap welding for sheet steels, such as structures of power plant’s flue and air duct, oil tank of transformer, upper structures of hul, vehicle plate and so on. The welding rod is unfavourable to weave too wide and the length of voltaic arc should be appropriate. It is not suitable for multi-layer welding and not for cosmetic welding.
Type of Covering: High cellulose, potassium
Welding Position: F, H, HF, OH, V, VD
Type of Current: DCEP or AC
Notices:
- Good condition of packaging and storage for it is important.
- Normally it does not need to re-dry. When it is damped seriously re-bake it at the temperature of 70℃-80℃ for 0.5-1 hour before welding.
- To increase performance of welding, when using a dia of 5.0mm one, a bigger thrust and smaller current are recommended.
