Light to medium penetrating all-purpose stick. 60,000 PSI tensile strength. Runs on AC or DCEP (reverse) polarity or DCEN (straight) polarity. Country of Origin:United States.
After trying this Industrial and Scientific welding product I was extremely disappointed at its lack of performance .The welds were weak and the rods kept sticking. Using this tool actually made MY job harder. The only positive aspect was that it arrived on time. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone in need of a reliable, efficient welding tool. Save your money and look elsewhere..
Pros
Durable and reliable for welding needs
Cons
Difficult to handle for beginners due to its higher amperage requirements
Hits well, clean enough without much spatter. Has a brown finish which I haven't seen on previous batches of Hobart 6013 but it didn't make much of a difference when running on AC. Suitable for welding materials with small gaps between different mild steel gauges.
