SUREWELD
10P (AWS
E6010) -
This is an all-position cellulosic (wood flour) electrode
that is especially suited for pipe welding but also functions as an excellent
general purpose
6010 wire. As a pipe welding electrode, it produces the consistent, deep
penetration required
to maintain a proper keyhole when welding in open root pipe joints. Recommended
for API grades A25, A, B, and X42 grade
pipe and for general structural, ship, barge, and storage
tank fabrication. Typical
mechanical properties are: Yield
Strength - 67,100 psi Tensile
Strength - 79,800 psi Elongation
(2" Gauge) - 29% Charpy
V-Notch Impact Resistance - 27
ft-lbs @ 0°F 22
ft-lbs @ -20°F The
typical chemical composition of the weld metal is: Carbon
0.12% Phosphorus
0.009% Manganese
0.28% Sulfur
0.017% Silicon
0.18% DEPOSITION
