Known as "Superweld," this electrode provides medium to shallow penetration with medium to heavy slag that is easily removed, making it i for poorly fitted joints. It performs exceptionally well on light gauge metals, sheet metal, and duct-work, ing ease of operation and a good appearance. The rod is suitable for use with AC, DCEP, or DECN polarity, delivering a tensile strength of 60,000 psi. Its small sizes are especially well suited for low heat applications on thin metals, making it a reliable choice for general purpose welding tasks. Model Number: 30405
