Welding Electrodes Lincoln Electric LINCOLN ELEKTRODA NORMAL FI 4.0 mm, 6.1 kg pack (318 pcs)

Welding electrodes Lincoln Electric LINCOLN ELEKTRODA NORMAL FI 4.0 mm, supplied in a 6.1 kg pack with 318 pieces, are rod-type covered electrodes designed for manual metal arc (MMA/stick) welding. These electrodes maintain consistent diameter and coating to ensure reliable arc initiation and stable weld performance for general fabrication and repair work. They are compatible with standard stick welding equipment and are intended for use where covered electrodes are specified.

Advantages

The electrodes offer uniform dimensions and coating consistency that help reduce arc fluctuations and spatter during welding. Their 4.0 mm diameter balances deposit rate and control, suitable for a range of material thicknesses. Supplied in a compact 6.1 kg pack with 318 rods, the pack format supports extended work sessions and reduces the need for frequent reloading. Designed by Lincoln Electric, these electrodes are manufactured to meet common industrial quality expectations for covered stick electrodes.

Suitable for

• General fabrication and structural welding
• On-site repair and maintenance
• Welding of mild and low-alloy steels where covered electrodes are appropriate
• Workshop projects and small- to medium-scale production

Key specifications

• Electrode type: covered rod (stick/MMA electrode)
• Nominal diameter: 4.0 mm
• Pack weight: 6.1 kg
• Quantity in pack: 318 pieces
• Intended welding process: manual metal arc (stick/MMA)

How to use

Select a suitable current setting on your MMA/stick welding machine according to the electrode diameter and base material. Prepare joint surfaces by cleaning away rust, scale and contaminants to ensure proper fusion. Use a compatible electrode holder and proper personal protective equipment (helmet with appropriate shade, gloves, protective clothing). Strike and maintain a stable arc with a correct arc length for 4.0 mm covered electrodes and apply controlled travel speed to achieve uniform weld bead and penetration. After welding, allow the weld to cool naturally and perform any required post-weld cleaning or grinding.

Usage recommendations

Store the electrodes in a dry environment to preserve coating integrity; if electrodes absorb moisture, follow manufacturer guidance for drying before use. Match welding parameters and joint preparation to the material and thickness being welded to ensure quality results.
