PIPEARC 6010P CIGWELD AWS/ ASME-SFA A5.1: E6010 Description and Applications: PipeArc 6010P is a user friendly, high cellulose type electrode for welding mild steel in all welding positions. PipeArc 6010P exhibits a quiet and forceful deep penetrating arc, quick freezing slag, extra low spatter levels and easy slag removal. PipeArc 6010P is designed specifically for pipe line welding using Direct Current Electrode Positive ( DC+ ) . It can be used for the root, fill and capping pass welding of full penetration joints in a wide range of steels using â stovepipeâ and â flickâ techniques. Root passes ( root runs) in single â Vâ butt preparations completed with PipeArc 6010P produce full and uniform penetration with excellent reverse bead formation. This electrode can be used for a wide range of applications such as, site fabrication work in the oil, LPG and LNG gas industries, shipbuilding, maintenance and general purpose work. PipeArc 6010P is used to weld out ( root, fill and cap) steel pipes such as API 5L, 5LX grades X42 to X52. For the welding of â Vâ butt ( groove weld) joints in higher strength steels, including 5LX grades X60, X65 and X70, PipeArc 6010P is recommended for root pass welding only. The fill and capping passes should be completed with PipeArc 7010P for X60 & X65 grades and PipeArc 8010P for X70 grades. APPROVALS: American Bureau of Shipping AWS A5.1 E6010.
