Thoriated Tungsten Electrode ISO 6848 ANSI/AWS A5.12/A5.12M-98

2% Thoriated Tungsten contains a nominal 2 wt-% or thorium oxide (ThO2) that is evenly dispersed throughout the entire length of the Tungsten. The most common type of Tungsten used today. Thoriated tungsten electrodes provides excellent resistance from weld pool contamination while at the same time offers the welder easier arc starting capabilities and a more stable arc.

Specification:

1.Dia: 0.5-25mm

2.Length: 150mm, 175mm, 178mm, other length as customer required.

Feature:

It cannot be replaced by other oxide electrodes during the long use process. It can be operated easily and current load is high .It can produce arc easily and steadily ,and the gap of the breaking arc is big ,loss less and long life .It has much higher recrystallizing temperature, much better conductivity and better mechanical cutting propert.

Application:

Generally used for DC electrode negative or straight polarity applications such as carbon & stainless steels, nickel alloys and titanium.

Working Parameters:
