Tungsten electrodes
We manufacture tungsten electrodes for orbital welding and TIG welding. The electrode length can be between 5.0 mm and 175.00 mm. Constant quality checks guarantee consistent precision in production. The electrodes are free of thorium dioxide and therefore non-radioactive and non-carcinogenic.
Precision for your orbital weld
In orbital welding, the electrode determines the quality. Since the arc distance in closed heads is fixed and predefined, the geometry must be absolutely precise. We supply the right electrode for all common systems (e.g., Swagelok, AMI, Orbitec, or Polysoude).
Our service – your advantages:
-
Custom-made: We manufacture individual lengths and tip angles from 18° to 120° precisely according to your specifications.
-
Flexible: Choose from various alloys or provide your own material for processin
- Process-reliable: Maximum repeatability for stable arcs and perfect welding results.
-
Best protection: Delivery is in practical orbital packaging – keeping the delicate tips clean and undamaged.
Rely on electrodes that are a perfect fit for your application.
General information on tungsten electrodes
Tungsten electrodes are mainly used for tungsten inert gas welding (TIG welding) and orbital welding. These are pure electrodes or electrodes with oxide additives. They are often color-coded according to the type and quantity of filler metal.
The quality of welding electrodes is primarily determined by the current load during the welding process, the quality of the weld seam and the behavior of the electrode during its service life. The current load of an electrode depends on its diameter, the type of current and polarity, the alloy filler metals used in the electrode and the bevel angle.
The quality of the weld seam is primarily determined by the shape of the electrode tip. Electrode tips without cracks are best achieved by grinding with the finest possible grain size. This also increases the service life of the electrode.
