This 21-minute tutorial from Weld.com settles the debate between 6010 and 7018 electrodes for open root stick welding through practical demonstration and testing. Watch as both electrode types are used to create 2G open root welds, filled and capped with 7018, then subjected to bend tests at Precision Welding Academy to determine which produces stronger results. Learn proper machine settings, plate fit-up techniques, and see detailed demonstrations of both welding processes. The video includes comprehensive coverage from initial setup through final bend testing, providing valuable insights for welders of all skill levels interested in improving their open root welding techniques. Includes access to a free PDF Welding Symbol Guide and information about connecting with the Weld.com community for feedback on your own welding projects.
