Priced Individually

2% THORIATED (RED) EWTh-2/WT20

Principal Oxide: 1.7–2.2% Thorium Oxide

Best for use in Direct Current (D/C) applications using transformer-based constant current power sources. Best for use on non-corroding steels, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and copper alloys. Good D/C arc starts and stability, medium erosion rate, medium amperage range, medium tendency to spit.0.8% ZIRCONIATED

(WHITE) EWZr-8/WZ8

Principal Oxide: 0.7–0.9% Zirconium Oxide

Best for use in Alternating Current (A/C) for aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys using inverter or transformer-based constant current power sources. Balls well handle higher amperage than pure tungsten with less pitting, better arc starts, and arc stability than pure tungsten.

1.5% LANTHANATED (GOLD) EWLa-1.5/WL15

Principal Oxide: 1.3–1.7% Lanthanum Oxide

Best for use in Direct Current (D/C) as an alternative to 2% Thoriated using inverter or transformer-based constant current power sources. Best for non-corroding steels, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and copper alloys. Best D/C arc starts and stability, low erosion rate, wide amperage range, and no spitting.

2% CERIATED (GRAY) FORMERLY ORANGE EWCe-2/WC20

Principal Oxide: 1.8–2.2% Cerium Oxide

Best for use in Alternating Current (A/C) or Direct Current (D/C) applications using inverter or transformer-based constant current power sources. Good for low-alloyed steels, non-corroding steels, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and copper alloys. Good ignition and re-ignition properties, long service life, and excellent arc stability. Low erosion rate, best at low amperage range, no spitting, good D/C arc starts, and stability.

PURE (GREEN) EWP/WP

Principal Oxide: None

Good for use in Alternating Current (A/C) for aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys in low to medium amperage applications using transformer-based constant current power sources only. Balls easily tend to spit at higher amperages. Used for non-critical welds only.

2% LANTHANATED (BLUE) EWLa-2/WL20

Principal Oxide: 1.8–2.2% Lanthanum Oxide

Best general-purpose electrode for both Alternating Current (A/C) or Direct Current (D/C) using inverter or transformer-based constant current power sources. Good for low-alloyed steels, non-corroding steels, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and copper alloys. Good arc starts and stability, medium to high amperage range, low erosion rate.

LaYZr™ (CHARTREUSE) EWG

Principal Oxides: 1.5% Lanthanum, 0.8% Yttrium Oxides, 0.8% Zirconium

Best for automated or robotic applications in Alternating Current (A/C) or Direct Current (D/C) due to low voltage tolerance (changes in tip-to-work piece distance) using inverter or transformer-based constant current power sources. Good for low-alloyed steels, non-corroding steels, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and copper alloys. Very stable tip geometry runs cooler than 2% Thoriated with longer life, low to medium amperage range. Very best low amperage starts
