Inweld 6013 Electrode – 5/64 in – 5 lb

General purpose mild steel electrode designed for thin sheet metal or light gauge steel but with sufficient penetration for welding medium gauge steels. Excellent operating characteristics when using small diameter electrodes at lower amperage and with lower open-circuit AC voltage. Used in all positions including vertical downward and overhead. This electrode is one of the easiest to use because of its wide operating range and restrike characteristics. Soft, steady, and quiet arc, low spatter and a slag that seems to peel away. This electrode gives off very little smoke or fumes – giving it superb operator appeal. Commonly used on many mild, low alloy and medium carbon steels, including tack welds on thin sheet metal, automobiles, metal furniture, farm equipment, window frames, iron grills, fences, storage tanks, and general construction.
