is this thin enough for exhaust use? without blowing through it.

I'll preface my statement with this... Yes you could with the right welder, the right conditions, the right skill, and carbon steel (coating likely) exhaust pipe. This does make it possible with a stick welder if you can set it low enough amperage to make the magic happen. When I tried these a couple years ago on an old buzz box I was not impressed... but the lowest that machine went was 40amps and that is the higher end of what these run on AC. When on a DC inverter machine you can play around at 20-25amps and probably get along good joining pieces that are well fit and possibly have been sleeved one over the other. Hope this helps kinda put stuff in context.

Could I use these in the place of titanium solder picks?

Don't think so. For welding mild steel with low amp welder.

At what amperage can these be used?

This 1/16" diameter rod will run between 20-45 amps.

will this rod suitable to weld 1/16' (1.5mm) galvanize metals?

These rods would be used on carbon steel.
