Forney 31201 E6011 Welding Rod, 1/8-Inch, 1-Pound

Forney E6011 welding electrodes are all-position mild steel rods designed for versatile welding applications. The 1/8 inch diameter, 14 inch length electrodes deliver strong arc force and deep penetration, making them ideal for welding galvanized tanks, pressure pipe, steel casting, and rusty steel surfaces. E6011 rods excel where positioning challenges exist—they perform reliably in flat, vertical, and overhead positions.

These electrodes solve common welding problems: fast metal solidification reduces spatter and improves bead shape, light slag coating allows for easy cleanup, and strong arc force ensures excellent results on oxidized or corroded materials. The 1 lb. pack contains multiple rods ready for immediate use on AC or DC+ power sources.
