OVERVIEW

Hobart 335A E6011 Welding Rods - 3/32" - 10 lb Pack

Tackle the toughest repair jobs with confidence using Hobart 335A E6011 welding electrodes. Known for their ability to weld through almost anything, these rods are a must-have for any welder's arsenal, whether you are working on the farm, in the garage, or at a job site. The 3/32-inch diameter is perfect for general purpose welding, giving you the control you need for thinner metals while still packing enough punch for structural repairs. This 10 lb pack ensures you have plenty of consumables on hand for your next project.

Why Choose Hobart 335A?

If you have an AC welder (like many "buzz box" stick machines), you know that running standard E6010 rods can be impossible. The Hobart 335A is the solution. It is an E6011 rod designed specifically to run smoothly on AC power while delivering the same deep penetration and digging arc you expect from a cellulosic electrode. It also works great on DCEP, giving you maximum flexibility regardless of your machine. The arc is stable and fierce, blasting through rust, paint, dirt, and mill scale to create a strong bond with the base metal.

Perfect for Dirty and Galvanized Steel

One of the biggest headaches in welding repair is surface preparation. With the Hobart 335A, you can spend less time grinding and more time welding. These rods are legendary for their performance on galvanized steel, burning through the coating without clogging the weld pool. They are equally effective on rusty farm equipment, painted trailers, and dirty structural steel. The fast-freezing puddle makes it easy to weld in any position—flat, horizontal, vertical, or overhead—so you can make repairs right where the part sits without having to dismantle it.

Reliable Results

Hobart is a trusted name in welding, and the 335A series lives up to that reputation. Users report less spatter and easier slag removal compared to cheaper alternatives. Whether you are fixing a broken gate, repairing a tractor hitch, or fabricating a new workbench, these electrodes provide the deep fusion and strength required for lasting repairs. Add a pack of Hobart 335A E6011 rods to your supply today and be ready for whatever dirty, rusty, or tricky metal comes your way.

FAQ

The Hobart 335A is an E6011 electrode, which means it contains potassium in its coating to stabilize the arc for AC power sources. E6010 electrodes are sodium-based and typically only work on DC power.

Yes, while it is optimized for AC, it performs excellently on Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP).

E6011 electrodes like the 335A are generally suitable for all positions, but vertical down is often reserved for thinner materials or root passes where penetration control is key. Always verify specific procedure requirements.

No, cellulosic electrodes like the E6011 should not be stored in a heated oven as they require a small amount of moisture to create the shielding gas. Store them in a dry place at room temperature.

A typical range for 3/32" E6011 is between 50 and 90 Amps. Start around 70 Amps and adjust based on your travel speed and material thickness.

Yes, the Hobart 335A has a digging arc designed to penetrate through moderate rust, paint, and mill scale, making it ideal for repair work where perfect cleaning isn't possible.

It can be challenging due to the aggressive arc and fast-freeze slag, but it is excellent for learning penetration control. For a smoother, easier appearance, E7018 or E6013 might be preferred, but E6011 is essential for dirty metal.
