2% Ceriated Tungsten Electrode 1/8" x 7", Gray, 10 Piece

TIG welding electrodes usually contain small quantities of metallic oxides, which can offer the following benefits: Facilitate arc starting Increase arc stability Improve current carrying capacity of the electrode Reduce the risk of weld contamination Increase electrode lifeNon-Radioactive. Best for use in Alternating Current (A/C) or Direct Current (D/C) applications using inverter or transformer based constant current power sources. Good for low-alloyed steels, non corroding steels, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys. Good ignition and re-ignition properties, long service life, excellent arc stability. Low erosion rate, best at low amperage range, no spitting, good D/C arc starts and stability
