Zirconium Tungsten Electrode ISO 6848 ANSI/AWS A5.12/A5.12M-98
Zirconated tungsten electrodes are good at the performance in AC welding, especially under high load current. These electrodes can retain a balled end when welding, which results in less tungsten permeation and good corrosion resistance.It balls up well in AC welding and has a more stable arc than pure tungsten.Especially with excellent performance in high load AC welding,it is not replacable by any other electrodes.It also resists contaminationwell in AC welding.
Parameter Specification
Specification:
1.Dia: 0.5-25mm
2.Length: 150mm, 175mm, 178mm, other length as customer required.
Model | Intermingled materials | Intermingled Quantity% | Other Intermingled Quantity% | Tungsten | Color standard |
WZ23 | ZrO2 | 0.20-0.40 | <0.20 | Remainder | Brown |
WZ8 | ZrO2 | 0.70-0.90 | <0.20 | Remainder | White |
Feature:
The surface condition of zirconated tungsten electrode is polish grounded. It is bright and tipped with the brown and white color for its different composition of zirconium in tungsten zirconiated electrode. 0.8% Zirconiated Tungsten contains 0.8% Zirconium oxide that is excellent for AC welding due to favorable retention of balled end, high resistance to contamination, and good arc starting. It has the good performance of less Tungsten permeation and good corrosion resistance.
Application:
Zirconiated Tungsten is most commonly used for AC welding of aluminum and magnesium alloys. Preferred when Tungsten contamination of weld is intolerable.
