HILCO ‘Red Extra’ E6013 Welding Rod Electrodes – 2mm | 2.5mm | 3.2mm | 4mm

Description

Hilco Red Extra is a Rutile Cellulosic 6013 mild steel electrode for all welding positions, including vertical down position. This electrode is particularly good for welding pipework in position due to the fast freezing slag characteristic of this welding rod.
This electrode is characterised by easy handling, smooth arc transfer, easy slag removal and a finely rippled bead surface. Red Extra is the ideal choice for construction work where the use of one type of electrode
is permissible for all applications.

Typical applications include assembly, workshop and repair welding of mild and low-alloyed structural steels.
Red Extra is an all-current type (AC/DC), which also operates on AC transformers with low OCV, min. 42V.
