Tungsten electrodes for TIG welding are categorized by their color-coded alloy content, each suited for specific materials and currents. Prices typically range from per 10-pack depending on the material and diameter. Common Tungsten Types
Ideal for DC welding of steels and titanium; handles high amperage but is slightly radioactive.
💡 Lanthanated tungsten is the safest high-performance alternative to radioactive Thoriated electrodes. If you'd like more specific help: buy tungsten electrode
Traditionally used for AC welding of aluminum but largely replaced by alloyed types in modern inverter machines.
Best all-purpose choice for both AC and DC welding on aluminum, carbon steel, and stainless steel. Tungsten electrodes for TIG welding are categorized by
