to make sure the moisture is out of the rod.
6010
6010 is a high cellulose sodium based electrode, which can be used to weld carbon steel pipes.
yes
6010 600000 psi, i =all position, 0 = ronze High charged iron electrode, it's about 246 mV
6010
6010 = 6000 + 10
any electrode with the first two digits 60 are 60000 psi tensile strength ex a 7018 would have 70000 psi tensile strength
what is the recomended welding electrode for EN-19 greade
5598,6002,6004,6006,6008,
6010/700 = 601/70
use a xx1x electrode such as a 6010 or 7018. i like around 77-82 amps for a 6010. point the rod about 5 degrees down and do small circles up while watching your puddle to maintain a consistent bead. start your tie ins a half inch above where you finished then quickly work your way back down to tie in and continue your progress up.
