TUNGSTENS THORIATED RED 2.4MM SUIT STAINLESS OR MILD STEEL

Tungsten Thoriated Red 2.4mm Suit for Stainless or Mild Steel

Product Description
Discover the superior performance of Tungsten Thoriated Red 2.4mm Electrodes, specifically designed for stainless and mild steel applications. Comprising a minimum of 97.30% tungsten and 1.70 to 2.20% thorium, these electrodes are among the most commonly used in the welding industry today. Their remarkable longevity, ease of use, and enhanced arc stability make them the preferred choice for professional welders.

Key Features

• Longevity and Durability: The incorporation of thorium significantly improves the electron emission characteristics of the electrode, allowing for better arc starts and a higher current-carrying capacity. This means less frequent replacements, saving you both time and money.
• Stable Arc Performance: Operating well below their melting temperature, tungsten thoriated electrodes exhibit a considerably lower consumption rate. This not only reduces the frequency of replacements but also minimizes arc wandering, ensuring greater stability during the welding process.
• Reduced Weld Contamination: With lower contamination levels than other electrode types, these thoriated electrodes help maintain the integrity and quality of your welds, making them ideal for precision applications.

Welding Applications
These electrodes are specifically engineered for specialty AC welding, particularly for thin gauge aluminum and materials less than .060 inches. They excel in DC electrode negative (straight polarity) applications, making them suitable for welding on a variety of materials, including carbon and stainless steel, nickel, and titanium.

Manufacturing Excellence
During the manufacturing process, thorium is evenly distributed throughout the electrode. This uniformity ensures that the electrode maintains a sharp edge, which is crucial for welding thin steel effectively. When sharpening the electrode’s point, it's important to exercise caution due to the radioactive nature of thorium. Always adhere to manufacturer warnings, instructions, and consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for safe handling practices.

For welders seeking reliability and superior performance, Tungsten Thoriated Red 2.4mm Electrodes offer an exceptional choice for stainless and mild steel applications. With their enhanced properties and specialized design, they promise to deliver clean, precise, and efficient welds every time.
