6011 Vs 6013 Which ROD and Polarity is BEST for WELDING SHEET METAL? Have you ever wondered what the difference is between 6011 and 6013 electrodes and what happens if you switch from DC Positive DCEP to DC Negative? DCEN Here is a side by side comparison of how each of these rods performs on sheet metal doing exactly that! See the results for yourself! The test material we used is 16 gauge (1.29 mm) sheet metal and the rods are 1/16" (1.6 mm) 6011 and 6013. The manufacturer recommended running these rods at 20-40 amps. I found that 20 amps was the sweet spot on my machine.

Thanks for running this video. I had an old welder tell me that as a rule of thumb to run any rod ending in an odd number on DCEN and those that end in an even number run on DCEP. I've kind of lived by this rule even though the rods are sometimes recommended to be run the opposite way (like 6011). However, based on your results, it looks like he is right.

Thank you for the video, I tried this both ways and I'm going out again. I find the penetration better with DCEP too. My DCEP also looks better than when I do DCEN. The problem I have is blowing holes in thin irregular surfaces (wheel barrow repair/re enforcing). The good thing about the hole is that it doesn't fill up with rain water any more :D

Thank you for the video. I picked up the Tractor Supply Co. Metal Man arc80 recently. I haven't done any stick welding in 8-10 years and forgot a lot. Checking these videos helps quite a bit. Good info. As far as the metal man 80... not bad. It's a good light weight machine for home use...runs on 110v 20 amp. First time my son used it he laid down a nice bead. I'm gonna pull out some scrap and practice. I did manage to drop a small project and your video helped me. Thanks again.

Congratulations on your new welder purchase and I'm glad I was able to be of some help. I saw the Metal Man for the first time this weekend at my local Tractor Supply but i wasn't able to see much of it because it was still in the box and they did not have any displays set up. It's a good feeling when you can fix, repair and build things around the house using your own tools and equipment.

@rvalcourtpersonaca

Agree with you 100% Brandon. As far as polarity, when welding on dcep the heat is directed on the workpiece, when welding on dcen the heat is directed mostly on the electrode. That’s why it seems hotter using dcep. Straight polarity dcen: straight electrode negative (SEN) short for senator, reverse polarity dcep: reverse electrode positive (REP) short for representative. Just a trick to remember how to determine straight polarity from reverse polarity. Superfine video!

Good video as usual. You will notice those rods are made shorter than usual. If you do get some long ones you can wrap the cable over your arm and grab the stick in the middle like a pencil, wearing your gloves of course! If it's hot and your hands get sweaty, or if the stick gets too hot you can put a reasonably clean dry cotton shop/hand towel over your glove and then grab the stick with that. Just be careful, and don't ground yourself anywhere else. I found, and then lost again, a video where a guy welded a box with 18 ga (1.2mm) sheet metal using 3/32" 6011 at 35A DC. He draged it at a steady pace at maybe a 45 degree angle, and created a narrow bead without burning through. DCEN might have helped, but he didn't say. He did say it works much better on some machines than others. It looks like 6011 might work OK at very low current (because of the aggressive arc?). I'm going to try it, AC and DC. The 3/32" is widely available, and the smaller sizes cost more. If it works I'll tell you all about it !

I've wanted to weld for years finally got me a small box and since I've never even knew anything about welding but I just bought a small variety of rods and just went to it and I've stuck thousands and burned holes in even more.. but I didn't fret and learned to fill them and move along with a grinder as my best friend to clean up the mistakes.. but I didn't know better I learned on thin metal and my welder wasn't the best when it came to holding an arc so I had to learn improvising.. which I have a method and rotation like I'm stitching figure 8s with a vibrato to the wand that helps maintain the arc... What I found with many trust is if I moved a but faster with 6013 and put a line on the edge of each piece before doing the main weld prevented many holes especially on rusted compromised areas that will blow through super easy... Course I never bought super thin rods this was all done using huge rods since I bought most my rods 2nd hand in bulk from others being o tight budget... Im a huge fan of 6013 in EN is what I've found as well on thin metal... When I finally did some thicker metal later on it felt like child's play compared to thin... Glad I learned it this way...
@BrandonLund
@BrandonLund 3 года назад
A lot of people assume that thin metal is a good place to start because it seems like thin would be easier but it's much harder as you found out. I'm guessing going this route you are probably a very good welder and I know you've learned to read the puddle!

20 years ago I bought an AC/DC Tombstone, the big Lincoln book on welding, & 50lbs of rods. Teaching myself to weld, I built a shop out of used oilfield pipe. I discovered an iron powder rod. Forget the numerical designation, but on DC reverse polarity the metal flowed So gently into the pool. Nice welds and good joints. Was a really nice forgiving rod.

I think your referring to 7024. 7024 will lay down some of the nicest beads anyone will ever see but it is only for flat and horizontal welding, however i always found welding flat was the best position for this rod.

Thanks, I never knew you can change over the cables, I've always welded the right way decp, but for sheet metal which I want to do den seems better, so that's what I'm going to try.

They aren't "springy" you have too much rod angle. These 16th rods will run smooth as a 1/8 7018 and slag peel every time. All those choppy beads are from welding sideways. They run best at 40 amps. Stand the rods up properly so they run smoothly. These little 6013 are some of my favorite rods. You'll enjoy them if you do.

Hi, what do you mean ‘too much rod angle’? I use 16th now because I’m working on 1/16” (1,5mm) square tubing. Do you mean the rod needs to be straight on the metal? So 90 degrees? Thx
@BudMasta
@BudMasta 2 года назад
@@Gemzy275 This is old, so mainly answering for other people watching this, you want your rod angle to be minimal, 5 to 10 degrees in either direction, depending on position on the weld. So yes straight up and down with a bit of angle is fine.

@unknown 1984 that is incorrect information for 6013. You run a much steeper drag angle with 6013 than you do with other rods because it's weld puddle is runny and the steeper drag angle keeps the weld puddle from piling up and creating porosity. 15 degree max for other rods but 6013 you want 25 plus degrees of angle. I don't normally pipe in but running 6013 vertical to 15 degrees is not how this rod is intended to run and will only give you huge problems

A handy way to handle the small electrodes is to cut the down or to shorter lengths OR remove the flux on the in the middle so you can hold them shorter in the stinger. Basically you’re “chocking up” on the electrode to keep a tight arc.

Great idea about clamping the middle! Thanks!

When welding with small diameter electrodes I had found for me if I lightly place my index finger on the electrode where it sticks out of the rod holder it dampens the vibrations on the rod to keep it calm during the weld process . The down side is the rod will heat up as you weld and it will eventually get hot on your finger . Good quality welding gloves are a must for this technique . Try it and see if it works for you .

That 6011 bounce looks like the E string on my bass guitar vibrating. It looks like it could be a challenge. Apprentice Colton James already has an eye for a solid clean weld! Master Grandpa has a nice library of videos that can help me earn my apprenticeship! Electrode Negative, Electrode Positive, great demo. I have plenty of video instruction ahead to tackle. Now I just need more time. Thank God retirement is very soon. More importantly, may God bless young Colton James and grant him favor all his years!

This information came at the right time for me. Am a novice in welding and am trying to do a DIY welding project. Here in Zimbabwe the only rods that are easily available are the 6013s, and the smallest is 2.5mm. I have been having challenges using it on square tubes 1.6mm thick. Was using DCEP at about 78A with a lot of blow holes. I think I am going to switch to DCEN, judging from what you have just shown in the video, I think I will achieve better results. Thank you, from Zimbabwe.
@BrandonLund
@BrandonLund 5 лет назад
Thank you for your comment! I love hearing from viewers across the country and hearing about their projects. 6013 can be a little difficult to weld with. I cant remember if I mentioned it in the video, but try experimenting with a steeper drag angle also. 6013 likes a somewhat steep angle. Cheers and thank you for your support.
