Mild Steel Electrode 6013
Mild Steel Electrode 6013 is a general purpose all position mild steel electrodes offering a quiet, stable, low penetration, soft arc making them suitable for thin plates and bridging wide gaps.
Welding with 6013 mild steel arc welding rods electrode gives you great versatility. E6013 is an economical electrode.
Rutile medium coated electrode, especially developed for welding mild steel for light metallic constructions and thin sheet.
One of the best welding rods/welding sticks for mild steel.
6013 mild steel arc welding rods uses:
Suitable for trade, use in structural engineering, shipbuilding, vehicle and agricultural machines, made of steel with max. 0,25%C, for service temperature up to 0C. Excellent striking characteristics. Welding sticks with a stabile arc and very spattering loss. The slag is self-releasing.
Very good weldability on AC and DC- current.
This mild steel arc welding rods comes in a the following diameters 1.6mm x 2 kg Weld Arc Brand , 2.5mm x 5 kg , 3.2mm x 5kg & 4.0mm x 5kg packages. Select the size on the drop down.
What’s the difference between 6013 vs 7018?
- E6013 produce a soft arc with minimal spatter, offer moderate penetration and have an easily-removable slag. These electrodes should only be used to weld clean, new sheet metal
- E7018 electrodes contain a thick flux with high powder content and are one of the easiest electrodes to use. These electrodes produce a smooth, quiet arc with minimal spatter and medium arc penetration. Many welders use E7018 electrodes to weld thick metals such as structural steel. E7018 electrodes also produce strong welds with high impact properties (even in cold weather) and can be used on carbon steel, high-carbon, low-alloy or high-strength steel base metals.
