3/32″ 6013 ALL PURPOSE WELDING ROD, 10LBS
Our 3/32" 6013 all-purpose welding rod is a versatile electrode designed for outstanding performance in general fabrication and maintenance. It provides a stable, soft arc with minimal spatter and easy slag removal, making it ideal for welders of all skill levels working with mild steel.
- AWS E6013 All-Purpose Electrode
- AWS / ASME Certified
- Mild Steel Fabrication & MRO
- AC / DC (Either Polarity)
The AWS E6013 classification denotes a high-titania potassium coated electrode designed for all-position welding with either AC or DC current. This rutile-based flux coating produces a soft, stable arc that is easy to control, resulting in smooth, uniform weld beads with a fine ripple. The slag is easily detachable, often self-peeling, which minimizes post-weld cleaning time. These characteristics make it a preferred choice for welding on thin to medium-gauge mild steel where appearance and ease of use are important.
This 3/32" diameter 6013 rod is exceptionally versatile, making it a staple for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) tasks in any industrial setting. It's perfect for fabricating sheet metal, ornamental ironwork, machine guards, and general light structural frames. Its excellent performance in all positions, including vertical down, allows for efficient welding on irregular shapes and in challenging access areas. These industrial-grade rods are suitable for tack welds, short intermittent welds, and full-penetration joints on clean or moderately rusty steel.
Specifications
- Material: Carbon Steel Core with High-Titania Potassium Flux Coating

Target Users
Ideal for professional fabricators, maintenance technicians, construction workers, and hobbyists seeking a reliable, easy-to-use welding electrode for mild steel projects in the Los Angeles area.
Finish Options
These welding electrodes feature a flux coating designed to protect the weld puddle from atmospheric contamination. The resulting weld bead has a clean, metallic finish after slag removal. No additional finish options are applicable to this consumable product.
How to Measure
Welding rods are specified by their diameter, AWS classification, and packaging weight. Ensure you select the correct diameter for your material thickness and amperage setting. The AWS classification (e.g., 6013) defines the rod's performance characteristics.
Example: 'I need one 10 lbs package of 3/32" AWS E6013 welding rods.'
