Washington Alloy Co. USA 6012

Specifications AWS A5.1 Class E6012 Description USA 6012high titania coated electrodes were developed for usage on thin sections and poor fit-up joints where shallow penetration is required. This electrode produces a quiet arc forceful enough to prevent slag build-up during vertical down welding. USA 6012 electrodes produce smooth, uniform weld deposit with low spatter and low porosity. Maximum deposition efficiency is attained even at increased currents and travel speeds on thick and thin base plates. USA 6012 electrodes may be used in any position. Applications USA 6012 is used for welding steel window frames, sheet steel, metal furniture, railway freight cars, automobiles, ships, barges, rolling stocks, pipes, castings and tanks. It is an excellent electrode to use for lap fillet joint welding on bottom plates in tanks.
