Can it weld 6010 electrode

This welding machine is very good. Can 6010 welding electrode without any problem, I have welded electrode 6010 without using half its capacipad, I've never been 100 amp that has not been necessary.

It does very well on 6010. I have used 3/32 and 1/8. this is a great welder.

Yes, 6010 is , I believe is a DC only rod, the Hot Max is a DC welder. I have used 6013 and 6011. It works great. Small, light and has enough power to weld thicker materials.

one more thing I have to say, I've never been 100 amp welding electrode 6010 1/8've soldier with a maximum of 95 amps that it was not necessary to upload more amperage and that this machine can weld with more power that comes easily designed to reach 200 amps.

I don't know about 6010 I have welded with 6011 and 6013 without problems. If the machane hold up as good as it welds it will be a keeper

I do not know for certain. The standard wire spool is for steel and may work also for stainless but you will need the maximum power setting for stainless. Stainless requires much more heat to weld properly. You may want to check with a local welding supply and they will be able to tell you for certain.

absolutely. I had a 64vw notchback that I did a body off restoration and welded in new pans. At the time I had a smaller lincoln mig welder that i did the job with. This one will do it no problem.

you can do it. Use 1/16 rod and keep amperage low. If this works out try 5/64 rod. I recommend 6013.

I've never tried, but probably not. For a dual-purpose gun that is used for electrical work as well as structural soldering, that would not be a particularly strong selling point. You are probably looking for welding or brazing tools, not soldering guns, if you want to actually melt wiring.

Yes you can weld aluminum. You can use the TIG process for it, or stick with the proper rods.

it can run .030 and .035 welding wire so long as the coordinating "tip" is in place on the mig gun. I found my best results were using Lincoln NR-211MP .035" wire with a .035" copper tip in place on the mig gun. Both available at your local Home Depot and in-stock normally.

Absolutely, you'll be supprised with what this little guy can do! My friends have welded their pick-up tail gates together with this welder. You might have to take a little more time doing it but, rest assured that this is a quality product with making a beautiful weld. It's extremely portable and efficient. Don't expect to weld a car chassis but you'll weld 55g drums all day.

Absolutely not. Aluminum melting point is 660 C or 1220 F which is unachievable with this torch. Your best choice is a TIG welder.

Since it's an 250 amp machine it will be able to, but can you weld out of position (over head).When I put pipe columns in I used a hole saw to cut a hole in the pipe for an elect. outlet, then weld box to post.I run plastic conduit in the concrete. Extra outlets are handy.Remember no wind with gas, fluxcore is ok.

Yes. I tried to do it but the attachment is more expensive that the welder itself.

This unit it will work fine for exhaust welding 90 amps is plenty for thin exhaust pipe.Don try to weld it continuous or you will burn through jus spot it and move until it is completely welded

Out of the box NO - I tried the aluminum rods without any success. It is DC but with a TIG torch and gas tank you can. What I have read online you can weld aluminum with DC but it is better with an AC unit. AS of yet I have not had the chance to set up my attachments to verify this.

I would say no because the welder needs a 50 amp and dryer uses less and you need bigger wire.

You probably shouldn't be messing around with electrical if you don't know the difference between a NEMA 6-50 plug with 8/3 wire vs. a 120 plug on your welder, you're going to get yourself hurt.

I have no experience with the hobart 190. The Eastwood Mig Welder 175 performs excelent.

Im not sure what you are asking but if it helps this is the site that I used for my setup and what I used it for. http://www.instructables.com/id/Small-Welder-for-joining-Nichrome-and-Nickel-Wires/?ALLSTEPS
