MAGMAWELD 6012 - General Electrode GP 2.5mm Stick Electrodes - 400g Pack

Hampdon Industrial stocks the premium range of Magmaweld Rutile & Basic Electrodes. E6012 is a general purpose electrode that offers outstanding joining characteristics, particularly for applications with wide gaps due to poor fit up. These Electrodes maintain a stable arc and operates at high currents with low spatter. Extremely versatile, E6012 is a great multipurpose electrode which can be used with both AC and DC power. Typical applications include Farming, General repairs, metal furniture construction, tanks, ornamental iron and sheet metal.

Properties and Applications:

Especially suitable for welding in sheets thinner then 5 mm, galvanized sheets and tubes, primer painted, painted and slightly rusty steels and in production of tanks and boilers, tube installations. Very easily operated in positional welding, including vertically-down. Good gap-bridging even at wide root openings. Smooth arc, well suited for tack-welding due to its easy arc striking and re-striking properties. Possible to use equally well both with AC and DC. Welds are smooth and blending into base metal without undercutting.

Manufactured to international standards:

• AWS/ASME SFA - 5.1
• EN ISO 2560 - A
• E6012
• E38 0 RC 11

Welding Position Applications:

• PA - Flat Position: Welding is performed from the upper side of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PB - Horizontal Position: The welding is done on the horizontal surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PC - Vertical Position: Welding is carried out on the vertical surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately vertical.
• PD - Overhead Position: Welding is performed from the underside of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PE - Horizontal/Vertical Position: This position is a combination of horizontal and vertical welding. The joint can be both in the horizontal and vertical planes.
• PF - 4G Position: This is a groove weld performed on the outside surface of a pipe or cylinder in a fixed vertical position.
• PG - 3G Position: This refers to a groove weld performed on the vertical surface of a plate in the vertical position
