Rutile electrodes such as E6013, E7014, and XXX-16 class stainless steel electrodes offer a soft arc with lighter penetration than cellulosic electrodes. ... Thus the number E6013 written on an electrode indicates that it is a rutile potassium based flux coated mild steel electrode with 62,000 psi minimum tensile strength having light ...
Abstract Thermally prepared catalytic coatings on a titanium substrate were composed of a mixture of nanocrystals of metallic Pt and RuO2 of rutile structure and used for electrooxidation of formaldehyde. The size of the RuO2 nanocrystals increased, whereas those of Pt decreased with increasing the content of RuO2 in the mixture. At more …
The difference between the E6012 and E6013 electrodes is that the E6012 covering contains sodium, while the covering of E6013 contains potassium. They can both run under direct current (DC+) but only the latter is suitable for running under alternative current (AC). Working with a constant current is recommended to …

the E7018 basic coated electrodes. For these reasons we have initiated a research program with manual coated electrodes of the ANSI/AWS A5.1-91 E6013 type. Our previous step (Ref. 9) was to study the effect of varying the slag basicity of an E6013 electrode, on the all- weld-metal properties and operational
This study consists of the replacement of 0, 8 and 16% of quartz ( SiO2) with wollastonite (calcium silicate, 50% CaO/50% SiO2) in the coating dry mix of three rutile ANSI/AWS A5.1-91 E6013 ...
Cellulosic electrode coating is identical as rutile. But, the basic difference is the percentage of Titanium dioxide (Tio2) is less in the cellulosic coating. When cellulosic burns, it results is the evolution of a …
An all-position "18" type electrode has 30 percent iron powder added to its coating and would be considered a medium-coated electrode. While it still has a fast freezing slag system, the additional 30 percent iron powder in the coating gives the electrode maximum deposition rate capabilities when welding out of position.
Exx13 – Rutile electrode, AC or DC, all position. (E6013) – Good performance in sheet metal welding. Exx14 – Iron powder rutile same characteristic as Exx 13, but with a higher welding speed. Exx15 – Basic …

The thickness of the coating on an electrode can range from thin (E6010) to thick (E7024) depending on whether the coating is designed to produce a fast-freezing slag system or …
Rutile flux wires also produce less fume than basic flux wires. Basic Flux Basic flux wires are used primarily when the goal is to achieve excellent weld metal mechanical properties. Basic flux wires produce welds with good low-temperature impact toughness, even down to extreme temperatures like -100°C. ... Begin your electrode …
A rutile electrode, such as E6013 and E7014, has a coating comprising titanium dioxide (TiO2), silicon dioxide (SiO2), iron powder, and calcium carbonate (CaCO3). E7014 electrodes have elevated iron levels so they can run at higher currents and offer higher deposition rates. ... A -16 indicates a basic rutile-type coating that contains …
What is a Welding Electrode ?? An electrode is a coated metal wire. It is made of materials similar to the metal being welded. For starters, there are consumable and non-consumable electrodes. ... • Rutile electrodes such as E6013, E7014, and XXX-16 class stainless steel electrodes offer a soft arc with lighter penetration than cellulosic ...
Understanding Electrode Coating. Consumable electrodes have a coating. There are non-consumable electrodes as are used in TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas), very often made of tungsten. These do not require coating since the weld is protected by shielding gas. ... Rutile coating: Spray transfer, easy to weld, flat seams, poor gap …
Rutile electrodes are primarily composed of TiO 2 due to which molten metal droplet hanging at tip of electrode is not much oxidized, and therefore, ... In case of light-coated electrodes incomplete de-oxidation (due to lack of enough flux), CO gas bubble is formed. This bubble remains with molten weld metal droplet until it grows to about half ...
Types of Flux/Electrodes The stability of the arc, depth of penetration, metal deposition rate and positional features are significantly influenced by the chemical composition of the flux coating on the electrode. …
The welding electrodes coating composition determines their utility and therefore the composition of the deposited weld metal and specification. ...
