Description:
Duramax E6011 is a high cellulose coated, potassium type electrode for pipe welding in DC(+) as well as AC current condition. forceful and spray arc, ensures deep penetration and Weld metal is of radiographic quality. Slag system that is a fast freezing , thin and easy removable.
Typical Application & Usage: DM6011 is designed for site welding of pipes and pipelines in all positions, using stove pipe and conventional techniques particularly for root bead.
RE-DRY CONDITIONS: Not Recommended

| Tensile Strength | 430 – 560 MPa |
| Yield Strength | 330 – 450 MPa |
| Elongation in 2″ | 22 – 30% |
| CVN Impacts (J) @ -30°C | 50 – 80 J |
| Recommended Welding Parameters | |
| Diameter | Amperage |
| 3/32″ | 50 – 80 |
| 1/8″ | 80 – 130 |
| 5/32″ | 110 – 160 |
POLARITY: DCEP or AC
DCEP = DC, Electrode Positive (reverse polarity) has the most weld penetration.
AC: medium weld penetration (can be more spatter)
USE LESS AMPS ON THIN METAL; MORE AMPS ON THICK METALS
WELDING POSITIONS: Flat, Horizontal, Overhead, Vertical-up and Vertical-down positions
