The Blue-headed 2% Lanthanated Tungsten Electrode is a high-performance electrode designed for demanding TIG (GTAW) welding applications. Its unique composition and innovative design deliver good arc stability, good weld quality, and extended electrode life, making it a trusted choice for professional welders across industries.
Crafted with a precise blend of 2% lanthanum oxide and high-purity tungsten, this electrode combines the good properties of traditional thoriated tungsten electrodes with the added benefits of lanthanum. The lanthanum content enhances conductivity and reduces the risk of contamination, ensuring cleaner welds without compromising arc performance. The electrode’s blue tip marking serves as a quick and easy identification for welders, streamlining workflow and reducing material selection errors.
One of the good features of this electrode is its good arc stability. The 2% lanthanium formulation provides a stable arc even at low amperages, allowing for precise control and little spatter. This makes it ideal for welding thin materials, delicate applications, and critical joints where precision is important. The electrode’s ability to maintain a consistent arc also reduces welding fatigue, improving efficiency and reducing operator strain.
The Blue-headed 2% Lanthanated Tungsten Electrode is highly versatile, suitable for a wide range of metals, including stainless steel, aluminum, and carbon steel. Its resistance to electrode tip erosion ensures longer service life, reducing downtime and saving costs over time. The electrode’s robust construction and precise manufacturing process ensure consistent performance, making it a reliable choice for both beginners and experienced welders.
