E6010

Product detail

Typical applications

Covering is low hydrogen, iron powder; common of welding applications include 71 ksi (490 MPa) class high tensile strength steels found in structural steels for buildings, bridge construction, storage tank fabrication, ship building, industrial and mining machinery fabrication.

Characteristics on usage

Excellent penetration with good fusion makes this electrode the preferred choice for pipeline welding
High ductility root weld
Low slag volume and easy slag removal
Very good bead appearance
Re-dry the electrode at 70-80° C for 30-60 minutes prior to use
