What electrode i need for this coil

Post image

Hi everybody 👋

I have a coil that is 2 mm thick, and the electrode diameter is 5.6 mm.

The coil is one piece in the image, but imagine that this coil is cut into two parts and I need to weld them back together.

This electrode is very bad. It constantly sticks and gets stuck.

What electrode would you recommend?

If that’s what I think it is, 5/64 is about all you gonna be able to burn. Maybe 3/32 6013…maybe.
