• 2% Thoriated Tungsten contains a nominal 2 wt-% or thorium oxide (ThO2) that is evenly dispersed throughout the entire length of the Tungsten.
• The most common type of Tungsten used today
• Thoriated tungsten electrode provides excellent resistance from weld pool contamination while at the same time offers the welder easier arc starting capabilities and a more stable arc
• Generally speaking, thoriated tungsten electrodes are used for DC electrode negative or straight polarity applications such as carbon & stainless steels, nickel alloys and titanium.
