FAQ TUNGSTEN electrode WC20 1.6 mm BIN700.0176

What is the specific feature of the WC20 electrode compared to thoriated electrodes?
The WC20 electrode contains 2% cerium dioxide, a non-radioactive substitute for thoriated electrodes. It offers excellent arc striking and re-striking capabilities at low currents, while ensuring high arc stability.
Which types of current can this electrode be used on?
The WC20 tungsten electrode is versatile and designed for use with both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC). It is perfectly suited for welding stainless steels, alloy steels, and non-ferrous metals.
How can the service life of this 1.6 mm electrode be optimized?
To maximize the longevity of the electrode, it is recommended to use a mechanical sharpener that respects the longitudinal direction of the grinding marks. Proper sharpening helps stabilize the arc and reduce premature wear during TIG welding.
