N-6010

Specification

Description

• N-6010 is designed for all positions, providing deep penetration with a spray arc, flat bead, and thin brittle slag
• Weld deposit has high tensile strength, ductility and is of X-ray quality
• Excellent weldability in vertical and overhead positions
• Deposition efficiency is higher than conventional types due to iron powder in the coating

Application

• Used primarily for storage tanks, ship-building, vehicles, pipes, galvanized plants, bridges, heavy equipment, building structure, etc. 

Remarks

Use DC reverse polarity (DC+) current

Maintain a short to medium arc

Hold electrode perpendicularly to work surface and slightly inclined in direction of travel, keeping size of molten pool small

Clear each bead well before applying the next

Vertical welding can be done starting from the top or the bottom as the work requires

For overhead welding, best results are obtained by the multiple beads method

Dry the electrodes at 60-70°C for 30 minutes before use
