The WT20-16-175 1.6mm thoriated (red) tungsten electrodes deliver stable arc performance for DC TIG welding applications. They suit precision welding on steel, stainless steel, and other ferrous materials.
The 2% thorium content improves arc ignition and helps maintain a focused, stable arc. This gives better weld control and reduces arc wander during detailed TIG work.
The 1.6mm diameter suits lower to medium amperage welding. It performs well on thinner materials, tube work, and general fabrication where accuracy and heat control matter.
These electrodes handle DC current efficiently and maintain a sharp point during welding. This supports good penetration control and clean weld bead appearance across a range of fabrication tasks.
Thoriated tungsten resists wear and holds its shape well under heat. Proper preparation and grinding help extend service life and maintain consistent arc quality.
These electrodes suit fabrication shops, maintenance work, automotive repairs, and industrial TIG welding applications requiring reliable DC arc performance.
Each pack includes 10 electrodes, providing dependable consumable supply for regular TIG welding and workshop production work.
Thoriated tungsten remains a widely used option for DC TIG welding because it combines stable arc behaviour, reliable starts, and strong overall performance.
