D&H Secheron NORMA-V is a general-purpose AWS E6013 welding electrode for low-carbon and mild steel. Its medium-coated rutile flux gives a smooth, stable, quiet arc in all positions, with uniform beads, fine ripples, low spatter and slag that lifts off easily.
It strikes and re-strikes readily, runs on AC or DC, and works well with low open-circuit-voltage transformers and small inverter machines. Designed for radiographic-quality welds, it suits fabrication, gates and grilles, machinery work and general maintenance. Available in 2.5 mm, 3.15 mm and 4.0 mm diameters.
Key Features
- Radiographic Quality: Designed for sound welds suitable for X-ray inspection
- All-Position Welding: Flat, horizontal, vertical-up and overhead
- Easy Slag Removal: Slag lifts off easily, cutting clean-up time
- Low Spatter: Neat, consistent beads with less clean-up around the joint
- Easy Striking: Quick arc start and re-strike, ideal for tack welding
- Works on Low OCV Machines: Stable arc on low open-circuit-voltage transformers and inverters

Recommendations by Variant
Which size to choose
- 2.5 x 350 mm: Thin sheet metal, tack welding, window grilles, gates and light brackets
- 3.15 x 350 mm: Medium steel frames, machinery bases, general fabrication and site work
- 4.0 x 450 mm: Thicker sections and heavier structural fabrication needing deeper penetration
1) What makes NORMA-V different from regular E6013 electrodes?
NORMA-V is designed for radiographic-quality welds with fine, even ripples and low porosity, making it a dependable choice where welds may be X-ray inspected.
2) Can I use it with a small single-phase inverter welder?
Yes. Its rutile coating strikes quickly and holds a steady arc on small inverters and low open-circuit-voltage transformers.
3) Do I need to bake the electrodes before use?
Not if they have been stored dry; they can be used straight from the pack. If they have been exposed to damp or humid conditions, bake them at 100 – 120°C for about one hour to remove moisture and keep the arc stable.
4) Which polarity should I use on a DC machine?
It runs on DC electrode negative (DC-), DC electrode positive (DC+) and AC.
5) Can I use it on high-carbon or high-tensile alloy steel?
No. NORMA-V is for low-carbon and mild steel. For high-tensile or alloy steels, use a low-hydrogen basic-coated electrode suited to that steel.
