Electrodes or welding rods are usually named like e6010 or e6011.
E6011 welding rod specifications.
I know exactly what you are talking about.
A lincoln 225 amp buzz box is perfectly capable of burning 5 32 rods.
Pinnacle alloys e6011 electrodes are designed to be used with ac current and duplicate the usability characteristics and mechanical properties of the e6010 classifications.
The coating of this sturdy steel electrode produces a smooth spray type arc forceful enough to achieve deep penetration while leaving a thin layer of easily cleaned up slag.
This electrode combines a strong arc force with fast solidification of weld metal thereby permitting vertical or overhead as well as flat and horizontal welding positions.
2 welding tips come to mind for getting rid of the crater problem at the end of the weld.
Make sure your amperage is not too hot and if you are welding on an ac dc machine ac works better.
Amperage 125 170 amps ac dcep dcen either polarity.
Claims for warranty must be made within 90 days of the date of purchase.

It is an all position electrode that beginning welders usually find extremely difficult but is loved by pipeline welders worldwide.
It is tops to dig through rust oil paint or dirt.

Of course the e stands for electrode while the first two numbers like the 60 in 6010 means 60 000 pounds tensile strength per square inch the tensile strength refers to the ability of the weld to resist being pulled apart.
6011 is especially suited for welding where poor groove fit up and rusty or oily steel is present.
Tensile strength 60 000 psi.
Dc will allow arc blow to start happening midway into burning the rod.
