CK Worldwide T187GL2 1/8" 2% Lanthanated Tungsten Electrode

Professional-grade 1/8" 2% lanthanated tungsten electrodes engineered for superior arc initiation and stability in both AC and DC TIG welding applications. These electrodes deliver consistent performance across aluminum, stainless steel, and mild steel with extended electrode life.

Lanthanated tungsten electrodes offer excellent arc starting characteristics at lower amperages while maintaining stability at higher current levels. The 2% lanthanium oxide content provides optimal balance between performance and longevity, making these electrodes ideal for production welding environments where consistent quality is essential.

• Diameter: 1/8" (3.2mm)
• Composition: 2% Lanthanated tungsten
• Manufacturer SKU: T187GL2
• Welding Process: GTAW/TIG
• Current Type: AC/DC compatible
• Applications: Aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel

The lanthanated formulation provides superior conductivity compared to pure tungsten while offering better arc stability than thoriated alternatives. These electrodes maintain their tip geometry longer during welding, reducing downtime for electrode preparation and ensuring consistent weld penetration and bead appearance.

Suitable for precision welding applications in aerospace, automotive, and general fabrication where weld quality and electrode longevity are critical factors. Compatible with all standard TIG torches and collet systems.
