AWS E6010 

E6010 is an all position, cellulosic electrode that has a quick-starting, steady, and deep 

penetrating arc. It produces x-ray quality welds in flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-up, 

and vertical-down procedures. E6010 was developed for the pipe welding industry and is recommended for welding API grades A25,A, B, and X42 pipe and general structural 

fabrication.

• General-purpose fabrication
• Maintenance welding
• Out-of-position X-ray welds
• Construction and shipbuilding
• Pipe welding
• Vertical and overhead plate welding

6010 Welding Rod Explained

 

E 6010 welding electrode is a Fast Freeze rod. What does that mean? Fast Freezing technology helps the electrode in quicker cooling as compared to other types. Consequently, it promotes faster welding. However, a professional can use this electrode like a pro; I don’t recommend it to amateurs. Shortly, 6010 is a high-yielding welding rod that comes with greater strength.

 

6010 Welding Rod Explained

 

Rod Thickness

 

Usually, the thickness of a welding rod is chosen based on the metal width you desire to cut. If your metal is thin, then you should go for an electrode slightly bigger than it. For example, if the thickness of the material is 2.0 mm, you should weld it with a 2.5 mm welding electrode. I s est you seek the manual for the best results.

 

Welding Polarity

 

The polarity of a welding rod is of great concern. In the general scenario, you need to understand that a circuit forms when you weld a material through an electrode. There are negative (-) and positive (+) poles in this electric circuit, which are called polarity. The welding polarity affects the efficiency and strength of your work.

 

The 6010 rods possess DCEP polarity, which stands for Direct Current Electrode Positive. In this manner, you have to connect the metal with a negative pole (-) of the source (which generates power) and a welding rod with a positive pole (+).

 

Based on polarity, the 6010 welding rod is not as versatile as 6011 because it is only compatible with direct current (DC). Also, 6010 requires more voltage than other kinds of rods. You have to maintain the power source throughout the process.

 

What is 6010 Rod Best For

 

As I said before, E 6010 utilizes direct current only, which results in deeper penetration than other rods. Thus, this welding electrode is suitable for overhead plate welding. It is one of the most challenging welding positions, in which you’ve to arc from the inner side of a joint. Due to deep penetration, you can weld surfaces covered with grease, dust or paint, etc.

6011 Welding Rod Explained

 

The 6011 electrode is also a fast-freezing rod that works quicker. It is most commonly used for pipe welding. As compared to 6010, I like the smaller pool of 6011 that facilitates easy cleaning. The main advantage you get with 6011 is more excellent compatibility. It can run on direct current (DC) as well as alternate current (AC).
