Stick Electrodes (SMAW) Mild Steel Classification AWS A / SFA 5.1 IS 814 Coating Type Coating Factor Identification E6013 ER 4212 X Rutile Medium Name Printed Characteristics: An electrode for structural applications. It gives good arc stability, fine ripples and easy slag removal. It can be used in all positions, especially in vertical down. It gives X-ray quality welds Joining steels like A, B, C, D grades of ASTM SA-283 Steel structures and tanks Truck frames and bodies, Ships Pipelines bridges and others Weld Metal Chemistry, (%) C 0.10 max. Mechanical Properties – All Weld Condition Current Conditions: Welding Positions: F, H, V- down, V-up, OH Redrying Conditions: Moist electrodes may be reconditioned at 100-110oC for 1/2 hr Availability: Standard Size Packing

Note On Usage: 1) Keep electrode dry (Optionally also available in vacuum-packed condition, redrying not required in this packaging) 2) To obtain best results rebake the electrodes at 100 ~ 110°C for half hour prior to use. 3) Use steel wire brush for cleaning of slags. 4) Follow the recommended welding parameters to achieve good sound welds 5) Do not use excessive currents. Hold short arc. Use good fit-up on joints. Above are basic guidelines and will vary depending on joint design, number of passes and other factors. WARNING Protect yourself and others. Read and understand this warning. Do...
