Sureweld 6013
Sureweld 6013 is an all-position electrode. The arc is very stable even when low-voltage open circuit transformers are used. The power of its arc allows depositing quick welds, medium penetration, and good appearance. Sureweld 6013 minimizes the risk of trapping the slag due to its special characteristics and mineral coating. Sureweld 6013 is used on a wide array of mild steel fabrication where ease of operation and good appearance is required. Sureweld 6013 is recommended for welding vehicle bodies, profiles, tanks, ducts chassis, freight cars, ornamental jobs and thin-sheet structures.
