- 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.
