E6011
Alloy Type: A5.1, CARBON STEEL Covered Arc Welding Electrodes > Filler Metals and Alloys
E6011 is a mild-steel, all position electrode designed primarily for use on AC power sources. It produces a strong arc force for deep penetration and a fine spray transfer that enhances operator appeal. Fast freezing or rapid solidification of the metal allows welding in the vertical and overhead position. Its light slag eliminates slag holes that are prevalent on some applications with other electrodes. This product can be suited in a wide range of applications.
Typical Applications: general purpose fabrication, galvanized steel work, structural work, shipbuilding
