Perfect for welding thinner sheets (less than 5 mm), galvanized sheets and tubes, primer painted, painted, and slightly rusty steels. Great for use in tank and boiler production and tube installations. User-friendly for positional welding, including vertically-down. Provides excellent gap-bridging. Smooth arc, perfect for tack-welding with its easy arc striking and re-striking abilities. Can be used with both AC and DC currents. Welds are smooth, slightly concave, and seamlessly blend into the base metal without undercutting.

Rod electrode: E 38 0 RC 11 EN ISO 2560-A AWS: A 5.1: E 6013 Coating: rutil cellulose

RUTILE-CELLULOSIC TYPE AWS: E6013 / EN ISO: E 38 0 RC 1 1 Electrodes for a variety of steel constructions on site The thin coated rutile/cellulosic cover provides: » Very good arc striking behaviour » Very intensive arc » Good penetration » Easy to weld in all positions

Applications: Welded joints in steel construction, vehicle construction, container and boiler construction and shipbuilding on unalloyed steels such as St. 33 ? St. 52, boiler plate H I ? H III, 17MN4, GS 38 - GS 52.

This multipurpose electrode, coated with Rutile-cellulosic, is ideal for welding structural steel, maintenance, and workshop tasks. It is particularly suitable for vertical-down welding and tack-welds, with excellent gap bridging capabilities. It can also be used on galvanized, primer painted, and mildly rusted parts. In assembly welding, this electrode maintains consistent performance in all positions with the same current setting. The resulting welds are smooth and slightly concave, seamlessly blending into the base metal without undercut. In most cases, the slag self-releases, allowing for optimal efficiency of 100%.

The characteristics of these electrodes are ideal for outdoor welding under adverse conditions. They can be used anywhere; even with simple welding equipment. Due to the intensive arc, they can be used to weld zinc-coated material or plates with paint or primer residuals.
