Best Welds 1/16 x 3 Zirconiated Tungsten 10/Pk
The Best Welds 1/16 x 3 Zirconiated Tungsten electrodes are a high-quality option for TIG welding applications, particularly suited for welding aluminum and magnesium alloys. These electrodes come in a convenient pack of 10, each measuring 1/16 inch in diameter and 3 inches in length.
Key Features:
- Material: Zirconiated tungsten (white color-coded)
- Diameter: 1/16 inch (1.6 mm)
- Length: 3 inches (76.2 mm)
- Quantity: 10 electrodes per pack
- Ground Finish: Precision ground for consistent performance
Benefits and Applications:
Zirconiated tungsten electrodes are known for their excellent performance in AC welding applications. They offer several advantages:
- Superior arc stability at high amperages
- Excellent for welding aluminum and magnesium alloys
- Compatible with both transformer and inverter power sources
- Resists tungsten spitting, providing cleaner welds
- Forms a more stable ball on the tip for AC welding
These 1/16 inch diameter electrodes are ideal for welding thin materials and for low-amperage applications. The 3-inch length makes them suitable for precision work and tight spaces where longer electrodes might be cumbersome.
Welding Machine Compatibility:
These electrodes work well with both traditional transformer-based TIG welders and modern inverter-based machines. They are particularly effective when used with AC welding on aluminum and magnesium, making them a versatile choice for various welding setups.
For welders looking for a reliable electrode for AC welding applications, especially on aluminum and magnesium, the Best Welds 1/16 x 3 Zirconiated Tungsten electrodes offer a high-quality option that balances performance and versatility.
