Welding Electrode Rod E6011

This electrode type features a cellulosic potassium coating, allowing it to operate efficiently with AC and DC+ polarity, delivering deep penetration through rust, mill scale, and contaminants. The E6011 designation stands for a minimum tensile strength of 60,000 psi, suitability for all-position welding, and a robust, quick-starting arc. It is widely used in pipeline construction, farm machinery repair, shipbuilding, bridge work, and general structural welding. Production is carried out under controlled metallurgical standards using low-carbon steel core wire with alloying elements like manganese and silicon, which improve strength, ductility, and weld metal quality. The special flux composition provides high arc stability and easy slag removal.
