What Are Stick Electrodes?
Welding electrodes are metal wires with baked on chemical coatings. The rod is used to sustain the welding arc and to provide the filler metal required for the joint to be welded. The coating protects the metal from damage, stabilizes the arc, and improves the weld. The diameter of the wire, less the coating, determines the size of the welding rod. This is expressed in fractions of an inch such as 3/32", 1/8", or 5/32." The smaller the diameter means it requires less current and it deposits a smaller amount of filler metal.
These are a pound (1lb) of 14" Mild Steel Stick Electrodes with 3/32" Diameter, E6013 AWS Classification
E6013 3/32" Dia X 14" Stick Electrode comes in 1 lb. Slag control electrode is used in sheet metal, maintenance and small AC welders with low OCV and suits AWS A5.1/A5.1M: 2004 requirements. All position electrode features high bead appearance and operates with low amperages on sheet metal.
Applications
- Sheet metal
- Irregular short welds that change positions
- Maintenance or repair welding
- For use with small AC welders with low OCV
