The abbreviations indicate the welding positions as follows:
F = Flat
H = Horizontal
H-fillets = Horizontal fillets
V-down = Vertical with downward progression
V = Vertical (For electrodes 3/16 in. (4.8mm) and under, except 5/32 in. (4.0mm))
OH = Overhead and under for classifications E7014, E7015, E7016, E7018, and E7018M.
The term "dcep" refers to direct current electrode positive (dcep, reverse polarity). The term "dcen" refers to direct current electrode negative (dc, straight polarity).
Electrodes of the E6022 classification are intended for single-pass welds only.
F Groups = F1 - Iron Powder, F2 - Rutile, F3 - Celluose, F4 - Low Hydrogen
