Timco AC TIG Electrode, color code WP=GREEN, intended for aluminum. Good ignition properties.
This electrode is completely additive-free, i.e. contains only pure tungsten. This electrode is used for alternating current (AC) welding of aluminum. The arc of a clean electrode is very stable. WP electrodes cannot be used when welding with direct current (DC).
- Delivery includes 10 electrodes
- Diameter: 2.4 mm
- Length: 150 mm
- Packed in a convenient storage box
- Color code: Green
- Application: All aluminum alloys
- Welding method: AC
Since different TIG electrodes all have their own good properties, choosing the right electrode is important.
