Tungsten Thoriated 2.4mm Red Tip

Features & Benefits

» 2% thoriated tungsten electrode designed primarily for professional DC TIG welding
» Thorium oxide content improves electron emission for reliable arc starting and stability
» 2.4mm diameter provides excellent current-carrying capacity for medium-to-high amperage applications
» Maintains a sharpened point effectively during extended welding cycles
» Good resistance to tip deformation and balling during appropriate DC operation
» Stable, focused arc characteristics help minimise arc wandering and improve weld accuracy
» Reliable high-frequency ignition provides crisp starts and consistent hot restarts
» Red tip provides quick visual identification of the WT20 thoriated classification
» Suitable for mild steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, titanium alloys and copper alloys
» Ideal for general fabrication, structural welding, pipework and other demanding TIG applications
» Contains thorium, a low-level radioactive material, so appropriate precautions and dust controls should be used when grinding or dressing the electrode
