AWS A5.1 E6013 : IRMA SH-26

Characteristics and Application

IRMA SH-26 is a rutile-type coated stick electrode (E6013) designed for welding mild steel base metal. It provides easy arc striking and re-striking, stable arc characteristics, low spatter, and excellent slag removal. The smooth weld bead appearance makes it suitable for both experienced welders and beginners.
This electrode can be used with both AC and DC power sources, and it performs well in all welding positions including flat, horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead.
