Blue Demon E6013 General Purpose Electrodes

Blue Demon E6013 is a mild-steel, all positional, general purpose cellulose-base rod. It operates on AC or DC welding current and works well on low voltage AC machines. E6013 is an excellent choice where there is poor fit-up in the joint. It deposits easily and smoothly producing medium to shallow penetration. Small sizes are well adapted to low heat and thin metals. Medium to heavy slag is easily removed and provides for excellent weld cleaning action during the welding process. Typical Applications: General purpose fabrication Metal buildings and structures Machine parts Shaft buildup Welding Positions: Flat, Vertical Up, Overhead & Horizontal Current: DC, AC, DCEP, DCEN Current Range AC/DC(+): Diameter F(mm)/1.6 Process/SMAW Amp/20-40 Typical Mechanical Properties(as Welded): Tensile Strength(kpsi)/60 Yield Strength, kpsi/48 Elongation in 50.8mm (%)/17 mm Typical Wire Chemistry (as welded): C/0.20 Mn/1.20 Si/1.00 P/*NS S/*NS Ni/0.30 Cr/0.20 Mo/0.30 V/0.08 Combined limit for: Mn=Ni+Cr+Mo+V *NS AWS Specification: AWS A5.1 Certification: AWS A5.1/A5.1M:2004 ASME SFA A5.1
