SKU CH-2RPD-1SWWH

A 1/16 inch carbon-steel stick electrode for AC or DC welding in all positions, supplied in a one-pound pack

  • Product typeWelding Supplies
  • 14 in electrode length suits tight joints
  • 1/16 in diameter enables precise thin metal work
  • E6013 classification runs on AC DCEN DCEP current
  • 60 ksi tensile strength delivers strong carbon steel welds
  • 1 lb pack keeps hobby jobs lightweight

Electrode for carbon-steel joins

This 1/16-inch stick electrode is classified AWS E6013 and intended for carbon-steel-to-carbon-steel welding. It suits general fabrication, maintenance and light structural work where a smooth bead and easy slag removal are valued. The rod operates on AC, DCEN or DCEP current.

Check power source and joint fit-up

Verify that your welding machine delivers AC or DC output compatible with E6013 rods and that the amperage range covers 1/16-inch diameter. Confirm the base metal is carbon steel and that the joint design matches the flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down or vertical-up positions listed. Ensure ventilation meets local safety requirements.

Fits SMAW workflows

The 14-inch length feeds standard stick holders and the 1-pound pack keeps the rod count manageable for intermittent jobs. E6013 coating tolerates less-than-perfect fit-up and produces a fluid puddle that bridges gaps in thin plate. No flux-cored wire feeder or gas cylinder is needed, freeaving bench space for other tools.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 1 lb package and is anything else needed to start welding?

The package contains 1 lb of 1/16 in diameter stick electrodes. You will need a compatible SMAW power source and personal protective equipment.

How do I choose between the available diameters for this E6013 electrode?

This listing is for the 1/16 in diameter only. Thinner diameters suit lighter sheet metal while larger diameters handle thicker plate.

What does the 60 ksi tensile strength mean when I am welding carbon steel?

It indicates the weld deposit meets a minimum of 60 ksi tensile strength as welded, matching the base metal strength for typical carbon steel joints.
