Subject: Whick welding rod was it??

I seem to remember an arc welding rod exists that a complete novice welder could use.

If they could simply strike an arc, lay the rod on the metal
at a 45 degree angle and the bead would move along unassisted.

Was I dreaming or what was the number on this rod?

I need to get some of these for a person that just can't get the hang of
a 6013 or a 7014 ( my two favorites ).

Thanks.

Try 7024, or 7018.  E7018 is a little trickier, but more versatile 
for all position welding.  Also, E7018 can be used with AC or DCEP 
power sources.  E7024 is mean't more for downhand welding and higher 
production rates.
