Reliable Arc Performance for DC Welding

2% Thoriated Tungsten Electrodes (Red Tip) are a long-established choice for DC TIG welding, offering superior arc stability, consistent performance, and excellent electrode longevity. Alloyed with thorium oxide, they provide higher current-carrying capacity and better arc starting than pure tungsten.

Ideal for use with DCEN (Direct Current Electrode Negative), these electrodes retain their pointed shape, making them suitable for precision welding applications. While thoriated tungsten is slightly radioactive, it remains widely used in professional environments with proper handling and safety precautions.

Key Features:

  • Excellent arc starting and stability
  • High current capacity
  • Maintains sharp tip for DC welding
  • Long electrode life
  • Suitable for precision applications

Typical Applications:

  • Stainless and mild steel welding
  • Aerospace and automotive components
