Detailed Product Description

2% Ceriated tungsten rod contains a nominal 2wt-% of cerium oxide(CeO2). Ceriated is different from Thoriated as it is not a radioactive material. Ceriated Tungsten also tends to last longer than Thoriated and can be used proficiently with AC or DC. In manual applications the Ceriated Tungsten will provide slightly different electrical characteristics than the Thoriated Tungsten but generally no difference will be seen by the operator. Generally used to weld carbon & stainless steel, nickel alloy and titanium.

Ceriuated-Tungsten Electrode has the following merit compared to the thorium tungsten electrode: (1) Non- radiativity; (2) Low melting rate; (3)Long welding life; (4) Good gets up the arc.
