Description:

DURAMAX E6010 A medium coated, cellulosic type electrode with forceful and spray arc, ensures deep penetration in all position including vertical down hand. Weld metal is of radiographic quality coupled with easy slag detachability, weld metal is ductile.

Typical Application & Usage:
  • Suitable for tank & vessels.
  • General fabrication.
  • Vehicles.
  • Railway wagons and machinery.
  • Ship building construction, light structural steel works
  • Storage tanks etc.
  • Ideally suitable for all position pipe welding and joints.

RE-DRY CONDITIONS: Not Recommended

Deposited All Weld Metal Properties % (Typical) As Welded
Tensile Strength 430 – 560 MPa
Yield Strength 330 – 450 MPa
Elongation in 2″ 22 – 30%
