TIG rods for TIG welding
Tungsten electrodes that are necessary for TIG welding are marked with the appropriate colour, depending on the type of metal to be welded - aluminium, stainless steel or carbon steel.
Various size of TIG rods
TIG welding rods are available in various diameters and in appropriate grades in terms of the selection of chemical composition for making appropriate connections using TIG welders. The process of joining the elements is usually performed in an argon shield.
Which welding wire for TIG welders?
TIG welding rods are non-melting accessories. They are mostly made of tungsten and may contain no more than 2% of other alloy additives. Depending on the type of additives mixed into the electrode structure, the wires can be used to work with other materials. When choosing welding wire for your TIG, always follow the welding instructions.
In addition, TIG welding rods are produced in various diameters, ranging from 1 to 4 mm. The thickness is selected depending on the width of the joint and the thickness of the joined materials. A TIG welding wire with a specific diameter will show optimal parameters only when exposed to a current in a specific intensity range. The shielding gas flow should also be proportionally selected.
TIG welding wire is offered in standard lengths of 175 mm. This dimension allows you to precisely maintain the distance of the rod from the joined material. It is also comfortable when working in difficult and forced positions.
