Blue Demon 6010 X 1/8" X 14" X 50LB Can, Carbon Steel Pipe Welding Electrode, 1/8" (Diameter) (E6010-125-50)

6010 welding rods are designed for vertical and overhead pipe welding. It takes practice to properly use this welding rod, but I like it because using a "whipping" technique, you can weld metal together without over heating it.

Quick shipping and exactly as described.

I like the fact that the welding rods where well packaged, and all of them are straight not bent or anything. none of them were broken which is good.Only thing is that the wattage on the box is not enough to light them up and melt them so you’ll have to use a little bit higher wattage for the best performance.

Great rods, the 50lbs of 1/8 6010 burned like a charm around 70 AMPs with my Hobart.

I am using Miller welder Maxstar 140 STR+And this welding rods not even work.

You never know till you've used it

I'll preface this with saying that I'm an experienced welder, and currently working on my 6G pipe test (B31.3 ASME cert) papers.I have been using some lincoln 6010 rods (red) and needed some gray (6010p) rods, so I thought I'd give these a try. They are chinese made, and come in a sturdy plastic box with inner bag liner - good for keeping them dry.They smell like a fireworks store, and I first tried them out on some 6" SCH40 pipe coupons with a bevel and 3/32" open root.Meh. The slag forms a "trumpet" at the end of the rod, and you can't see the puddle. Needless to say, my welds came out less than awesome.Second try: some cold-rolled 3/16" steel plate - they do a decent job of laying a bead, providing you can work around the "trumpet end" issue and see the puddle. Not a huge deal on flat plate jobs, but any type of vertical or horizontal weld, forget it.They also seemed to stick more than the lincolns at the same amperage. I boosted the power a little and they ran fine, but the trumpet end got kind of annoying.Slag does clean off pretty well, no better/worse than any other 6010's I've burned.I think that they are fine for general fab and repair work, but, don't let the "made for the pipe industry" bit on the label fool you, these things would go overboard on any of the rig-welding jobs I've seen.But I'm sure they'll fix your lawnmower just fine.

7018 rods that strike and restrike readily. Smooth weld in 1F and 2F and 3F...

Excellent

Great
