Tungsten TIG Electrodes for DC-TIG Welding
Brief Overview
These tungsten TIG electrodes are engineered for precision DC-TIG welding across demanding material sets. A pack of 10 electrodes, each 175mm long with a 2.4mm diameter, designed for technicians and shops working with stainless steel, high-alloy compositions, copper alloys, nickel alloys, and titanium. The red identification tip makes electrode selection intuitive on the workshop floor. If you're stocking multiple amperage ranges, consider our complementary shorter 160mm tungsten electrodes for tighter access applications, or explore our alternative green-tip tungsten variant for specialized alloy compatibility.
Key Features
- Composition: 98% Tungsten (W) + 2% Thorium (Th02) – proven arc stability and longevity in DC circuits
- Dimensions: 2.4mm diameter × 175mm length – ideal for moderate amperage DC-TIG work (typically 40–150A range, depending on material thickness)
- Red Tip Identification: Instantly recognizable on the workbench; reduces electrode selection errors
- Packed Format: 10 electrodes per clear plastic case with molded holder – organized, space-efficient storage and easy transport
- Application Range: Optimized for stainless steel, high-alloy steels, copper alloys, nickel-based alloys, and titanium
Why This Works for Your Business
Stock Confidence: Thorium-tungsten (2% Th) is the industry standard for DC-TIG. Customers recognize it, trust it, and return for it. No exotic alternatives to explain.
Margin-Friendly Unit Size: 10-electrode packs move quickly in active shops—frequent reorders mean predictable turnover without long-term inventory risk.
Broad Appeal: The 2.4mm diameter covers the sweet spot for light-to-moderate fabrication work. Pairs naturally with your existing electrode inventory for a complete offering.
Professional Presentation: Red-tipped electrodes signal quality and precision to your customers. The molded case eliminates loose, damaged stock on shelves.
