6013 is a mild steel electrode that bridges the span between mild steel and medium steel. It has a lot of the characteristics of the 60s type electrode but with a thicker coating that doesn't spatter as much and can be used with either AC or DC Polarity. 60 equals 60,000 lbs tensile strength, 1 equals all position, 13 states basic coating type and denotes AC plus DC useage. The deposited bead has a thicker slag coating than 6010, 6011, 6012.

What is difference between welding rod and electrode?

welding rod is used without applying current through it while the other one is, current is passing thru it..i.e. Welding rods are used in TIG welding process while Electrodes (E6011, E6013, E7017..etc..) is used in SMAW process

What is the meaning consumable welding?

Consumable electrode welding contain the processes where the electrode acts as the filler material and the electrode that generates the arc. Because the electrode is also the filler material, the electrode 'burns' or is consumed, hence consumable electrode.


What does the E stand for on a welding rod?

It stands for electrode. As opposed to R ( rod) for gas welding or TIG welding. If it carries electrical current it is an electrode.
