Tungsten electrode

Wp-tungsten electrode:


Pure tungsten electrode


Used for AC current welding of aluminum alloy


Not suitable for DC current welding


Wt-tungsten electrode:


The additive contains thorium, so there is a slight radiation


Because of the increased risk to health, so try not to use


It has better arc starting performance and higher current carrying capacity than pure tungsten electrode


WZ- Tungsten:


The additive zirconium reduces the possibility of contamination of molten metal


Used for AC current welding of aluminum alloy


Only suitable for DC current welding under certain conditions


Wl-tungsten electrode:


Lanthanum oxide is beneficial to improve arc initiation performance


Suitable for both DC current welding and AC current welding


It can be used for welding non-alloy steel and high alloy steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, nickel alloy, copper alloy and magnesium alloy, as well as for micro-beam plasma welding


Especially suitable for small current welding


Can be used to replace WT-tungsten electrode


WC- Tungsten electrode:


Tungsten electrode containing cerium oxide has good arc initiation and re-initiation performance


Suitable for both DC current welding and AC current welding


It can be used to weld non-alloy and high-alloy steels, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys and magnesium alloys in the low and medium current ranges


Can be used to replace WT-tungsten electrode


Ws-tungsten electrode:


There are different ingredients of additives, there is no uniform standard


Suitable for both DC current welding and AC current welding


It can be used to weld non-alloy and high-alloy steels, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys and magnesium alloys in the low and medium current ranges


Long working life, high current carrying capacity
