Fleetweld 180 E6011 carbon-steel electrode
Lincoln Electric ED030563 is a 1/8 inch diameter stick electrode classified AWS E6011 for shielded metal welding on carbon steel. The electrode measures 14 inches in overall length and is packaged in a 5 lb container. It carries the Fleetweld 180 series designation from Lincoln Electric.
Buyers needing AC or DCEP current compatibility
This electrode suits workshops and maintenance teams joining carbon steel to carbon steel where AC or DCEP polarity is used. It is not for applications requiring a different AWS classification or for welding non-ferrous metals such as aluminium or stainless steel.
AWS E6011 classification with 60 ksi minimum tensile
The AWS E6011 classification confirms a minimum tensile strength of 60 ksi and a minimum yield strength of 48 ksi. As-welded tensile strength ranges from 83 to 86 ksi while as-welded yield strength ranges from 67 to 71 ksi. This specification determines whether the electrode meets the mechanical requirements of the joint.
