Welding Rod

Product Details:

Thoriated Tungsten Electrodes known for their excellent arc stability, long lifespan, and ease of use in DC applications. Thorium increases the electron emission qualities of the electrode, which improves arc starts and allows for a higher current-carrying capacity. This electrode operates far below its melting temperature, which results in a considerably lower rate of consumption and eliminates arc wandering for greater stability.

Compared with other electrodes, thoriated electrodes deposit less tungsten into the weld puddle, so they cause less weld contamination.

Note: Thorium is radioactive; therefore, you must always follow the manufacturer's warnings, instructions and the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for its use.

Product Details:

Pure Tungsten Rods provide ultra-high melting point, excellent thermal conductivity and outstanding arc stability. They are primarily used as TIG welding electrodes for Aluminum and Magnesium and in high-temperature furnace parts, heating elements, aerospace components and semiconductor equipment. Their high hardness, low thermal expansion and long service life make them ideal for extreme-temperature industrial applications.
