Hilco Red Extra 6013 Mild Steel Electrodes

• All welding positions
• Easy handling, smooth arc transfer and easy slag removal
• For construction work where the use of one type of electrode is permissible
• All-current type (AC/DC): Also operates on transformers with low OCV, min. 42V

Red Extra is a universal electrode for welding mild steel in all welding positions, including vertical-down position. This electrode is characterised by easy handling, smooth arc transfer, easy slag removal and a finely rippled bead surface. Red Extra is the ideal choice for construction work where the use of one type of electrode is permissible. Typical applications include assembly, workshop and repair welding of mild and low-alloyed structural steels. Red Extra is an all-current type (AC/DC), which also operates on transformers with low OCV, min. 42V.
