Hobart E6013 1/16 in 1 lb Electrode
Hobart E6013 is a mild steel stick electrode classified as AWS E6013 for welding carbon steel to carbon steel. It operates on AC, DCEN, and DCEP current with a 1/16 in diameter and 14 in length. The 1 lb package suits maintenance, repair, and light fabrication tasks.
Suits general purpose welding in all positions
This electrode handles flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down, and vertical-up positions for versatile shop or field use. It is not for stainless steel, aluminium, or other non-ferrous metals. Buyers needing higher deposition rates or specific low-hydrogen properties should look at other classifications.
60 ksi tensile strength with E6013 classification
The weld deposit delivers a minimum 60 ksi tensile strength and 48 ksi yield strength meeting AWS E6013 requirements. This specification determines suitability for structural carbon steel joints where these mechanical properties are specified. The rod diameter of 1/16 in is fixed for this package.

Questions about this item
How do I fit the 1/16 in diameter 14 in rod into my holder and which current setting should I choose?
Match the 1/16 in diameter to the holder jaws, then select AC, DCEN or DCEP on the machine as listed for this E6013 classification.
What will need replacing once I finish the 1 lb pack of E6013 electrodes?
The pack contains 1 lb of 1/16 in carbon-steel rods; when they are used up you simply buy another pack of the same AWS E6013 specification.
At what tensile strength does the deposited weld metal reach its minimum rated limit?
The as-welded tensile strength is rated at 60 ksi minimum, which is the first mechanical limit encountered under sustained loading.
