How to select the right tungsten electrode for TIG welding?
Select based on base metal and current type. For AC welding of aluminum, use pure or zirconiated tungsten. For DC welding of steel or stainless, thoriated (red, EWTh-2) or lanthanated electrodes offer superior arc stability. The WESTWARD EWTh-2 is ideal for DC applications requiring consistent arc starts and long electrode life.
