with thorium

Supplier KMZ offers brands tungsten electrode WT-15 (red) and WT-30 (rose) with thorium at economical price. Regular customers can take advantage of the discount discount. The provider ensures timely delivery of products to any email address. The price is the best in this segment of the rental.

Technical characteristics

Electrodes with thorium brands WT-15, WT-30 (EWTh-2, according to the classification of the American Union welders) at least 97,30% tungsten and 1.70 to 2.20 percent thorium. The main differences between these electrodes durability and ease of use. The presence of thorium leads to an increase in the emission qualities of the electrode, which facilitates ignition of the arc, and allows to increase the throughput of the welding current. This electrode operates in temperatures far below the melting temperature of tungsten, which significantly increases the longevity and increases the stability of arc burning. Stamps WT-15 WT-30 less contaminate the weld than the other electrodes of similar composition.

Application

Unlike pure tungsten, these electrodes are designed for welding with alternating current, products of special type (e.g., aluminum structures or products made from sheet steel and alloys). Stamps WT-15, WT-30 with thorium are preferred in a reverse or straight polarity DC on carbon and stainless steels, Nickel and titanium alloys. During welding, thorium is evenly distributed throughout the electrode. This allows you to maintain a sharpened edge — the ideal electrode shape for welding thin steel.

Chemical composition

• The electrodes WT-15 contain 1.2…1.8% of the thorium, and are marked in red;
• Electrodes WT-30 contain 2,8…3,2% thorium, and have purple markings.

The total content of impurities should not exceed 0.2…0.3 percent. Thorium is radioactive, therefore, when using such electrodes, it is necessary to strictly follow the manufacturer’s instructions and safety rules when working with radioactive components (in particular, the mandatory continuous ventilation of the working space).

Assortment

The diameter of the electrodes: 1.0 to 6.4 mm, length 50, 75, 150, and 175 mm. Permissible heating temperature of the surface of the electrodes…3600 3800°C.
