6010 Pipe Welding | 3/32' Gap VS 1/16' Gap

Today we got Weld.Com in the house doing some brother in law welding. We are comparing a 3/32" gap versus a 1/16" gap using the 6010 stick rod. If you haven't heard download the Weld app and join the weld hub today. Available wherever you download your apps!

Well hot dam, a great video and a Bob siting. I was worried the old man left without saying goodbye, glad to see he's still kicking.

I always do a 3/32 land with 3/32 gap. Reason being your tight spots will be about a 1/16 gap. We also don't use remotes. So what I do is when my fit gets tight I switch to 3/32 6010. Then your wide spots are 1/8 and just whip and pause. Let's face it when we get in the real world you hardly ever get a perfect fit.

When I started welding I used a mnemonic device to remember what to do
MOTT SKY
Melt
Off
The
Top and
Stick it in the
Keyhole
Yo
It's not great I know but it worked.
You let that material above melt down too your keyhole then stick that rod in to ensure fusion, but this was with 1/8" gap and land at like 70 amps. Now, if I have the luxury, I typically weld with a gap slightly wider than 3/32 but smaller than 1/8, a land of 3/32, and at 75 amps. I can practically push my rod against the gap and let it glide, riding the top of the keyhole the whole time as it closes up nicely behind it. Just have to make sure I keep up the right pace, feed, and perpendicular angle.

Hi Bob,

For 6010 stick root pass, pipe 2G position, how do you control the keyhole from getting too big and creating a big hole. Sometimes it’s difficult to fill back in during the root, or when you try to fill it back in after you’ve stopped, it looks inconsistent from your original pass.

[ypaulbrown]

Riley burn in it in, well done Sir....Paulie

[nathkrupa]

Hello Weld-tube a huge fan. I’m trying to build my channel as well. What type of camera are y’all using to capture the welding?

[rmbico]

HI guys. I am learning and sort of a newbie. Can you give focus on Body positing. I am having difficulty. Especially Overhead and 6G. Thanks a lot.

What is “fingernailing?” I been welding for like 7 years and i never heard that term before. Just wondering
