• Applications
  • Welding of shells of railway vehicles, cars and other steel sheet structures and general light structural steels.
  • Characteristics
    • - W 6013 is a high titania type electrode which provides good usability in all positions.
    • - The arc is stable with little spatter and the lustrous bead can be obtained.
    • - W 6013 is suitable for welding steel sheets and light structures because of shallow penetration.
  • Notes on Usage
    • - Pay attention not to exeed the range of proper currents. Welding with excessive current not only lowers X-ray soundness, but also causes increase of spatter, under-cut.
    • - Dry the electrodes at 70~100℃ for 30~60 minutes before use. Excessive moisture absorption lowers usability and may result in some porosities.
