The "3" in E6013 represents what according to the Numerical Coding for Electrodes?

  1. Material Compatibility

  2. Shape

  3. Welding Current

  4. Wire Gauge

The correct answer is: Material Compatibility

The number "3" in E6013 represents the Tensile Strength of the electrode according to the Numerical Coding for Electrodes. Material Compatibility is a key factor in achieving strong and stable welds, and the numerical coding system helps identify the different properties of each electrode type. Option B, Shape, does not correspond with the numerical coding and is used to describe the physical appearance of the electrode. Option C, Welding Current, is represented by the letter "E" in the coding system. Option D, Wire Gauge, is not represented in the numerical coding and is used to describe the diameter of the electrode.
