AWS E7010-P1 (E4310*)
Description
An excellent all-position, cellulosic mild steel electrode needed for a strong, dependable , X-ray quality weld. It delivers the arc stability and drive you need for the best penetration position; plus, it is ideal for vertical-down welding, single-or multi-pass, on 5L, 5LX, and X-52 through X-65 pipes. Has a quick start and quick clean-up with a light slag that's easy to remove.
Applications

TYPE OF CURRENT
Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP)
RECOMMENDED WEL DING TECHNIQUES
GENERAL:Electrode positive, work negative (DCEP)
ARC LENGTH:Average length (1/8”to 1/4")
FLAT:Stay ahead of puddle and use slight whipping motion
VERTICAL-UP:Slight whipping or weaving technique
VERTICAL-DOWN:Use higher amperage and faster travel, staying ahead of puddle
OVERHEAD:Use similar technique as for vertical-up, multi-pass for build-up
PIPE:Use downhill travel
STORAGE
Dry at room temperature.
