E6013 Classification

E 38 0 RC 11 to EN ISO 2560-A; AWS A5.1 E6013 - a widely recognised, general-purpose electrode standard for mild steel MMA welding.

Rutile-Cellulosic Flux Coating

A very active, intensive arc that strikes and re-strikes easily, even on basic AC transformer welders.

Self-Releasing Slag

Lifts cleanly away from the weld as it cools, cutting down on chipping and clean-up between passes.

AC or DC, Either Polarity

Compatibility across the widest range of stick welding sets.

All Welding Positions

Including vertical-down, with strong gap-bridging ability on imperfect joint fit-up.

Tolerant of Surface Conditions

Light surface rust, mill scale, and galvanised, primed or painted steel.

Deposited Weld Metal Strength

Yield ~400MPa (58,000psi), tensile ~510MPa (74,000psi), elongation ~28%.

Eight Diameter/Length Combinations

From 2.0mm x 300mm up to 5.0mm x 450mm.
