Try to find something more like 6010 (DC) or 6011 (AC) electrodes and try them out if you get a chance and see how they work for you. They burn hotter with more penetration and you might like them better.

As noted in the quote above your Vitemax rods should do a good job of filling in large gaps between parts though. A good thing to know in the future.

Thanks Willie,
A year or two back I was told my welds are too cold, should I turn up the amps?. The electrodes I'm using say 60 - 95A (2.5mm dia) my welder was set on 95A, may be I should turn it up a little more.

I'll have a look for some 6010 or 6011 electrodes.
