What classification is a 6010 electrode?

  1. Slow freeze

  2. Medium freeze

  3. Fast freeze

  4. Non-freezing

The correct answer is: Fast freeze

A 6010 electrode is classified as a fast freeze electrode. This means that it has a higher current density and will cause the molten pool to cool down quickly. The other options are incorrect because a slow freeze electrode would have a lower current density and would cause the molten pool to cool down slowly. A medium freeze electrode would have a medium current density and a non-freezing electrode would have no current density at all.
