Sell WELD 6013 ESAB Welding Electrode
Weld 6013 is the ESAB electrode in all positions. Welding wires with arcs are very stable even when low voltage open circuit transformers are used. The arc strength of this ESAB welding wire allows fast, medium penetration and good appearance adjustment. Tiep Weld 6013 ESAB welding wire eliminates the risk of trapping slag due to special characteristics and mineral coating. Weld 6013 is used in a variety of mild steel fabrications where easy operation and good appearance are needed. Weld 6013 is recommended for welding vehicle bodies, profiles, tanks, channel chassis, freight cars, decorative work and thin sheet structures.
