Characteristics:
AWS A5.1 E6013 (J421) is a rutile type electrode. Can be welding both AC & DC power source and can be for all position. It have excellent welding performance as stable arc, little spatter, easy slag removal and reignition-ability etc. Rutile-cellulosic electrode with good weld ability in all positions including vertical down. Excellent gap-bridging and arc-striking ability. For tack welding and load fit ups. General purpose for industry and trade, assembly and shop welding.
