SUREWELD 6013-LV

Sureweld 6013-LV is an all-position electrode designed to operate on low voltage AC power sources that have less than 50 open circuit volts. It is ideal for poor fit-up applications. This electrode can be used on thin gauge carbon and galvanized steels and is ideal for the hobby welder.

Features

Sureweld 6013-LV is an all-position multi-purpose electrode designed for light duty applications. It is ideally suited for the hobbyist welder. The low voltage feature permits its use on AC power sources that have less than 50 open circuit volts. Sureweld 6013-LV can be used on thin gauge carbon and galvanized steels. It is an excellent choice for applications where offsets or fit-up is a problem.

Extra Info

Procedure

Maintain a short arc, tilt electrode 5° to 15° in the direction of travel for flat and horizontal fillets. When welding vertical, use a weaving "U" or "V" motion. Clean slag thoroughly between passes.
