A few pic of 6013/6012 jobs. 3.25mm for joints, and 2.5 for the welded writing. About 90-130amps.

You guy's evidently have some nice 6013.... ;)
Just a couple welders and a couple of big hammers and torches.

Great looking welds guys. Like Jody said in his last video, I admire those who use 6013 welding pipe. I need to try is some time.

Unless Esab markets using different number systems around the world if it were 6013 the number would be 46.00 - rods starting 63.XX are in the austenitic stainless range & under the generic term " Almat " - maybe the numbers are different in the UK ?

YEAP My mistake it was 43.32 :D When you get that rod at right angel runs nice beads, but that slag is easily in front of the budle if the rod Angel is too litle. That "worm hole effect comes bretty easily whit thees Esab 6013rods"

Easy to mistake - either they print those numbers smaller or my eyes are getting worse ! - never used the 43.32 - most suppliers here tend to stock the 46.00 ( Miltrode ) not sure what the difference is in use - does'nt look much difference on the Esab website - whatever the rod it's a very good looking weld - just don't start AK off about 6013 !
