TIG Welding

The whole name of TIG is Tungsten Inert Gas Welding. It is a kind of welding which use pure tungsten or rare earth tungsten alloy as an electrode, and the protective gas is inactive gas.

TIG welding

Selection of tungsten electrodes of TIG welding is wide, such as pure tungsten electrodes, thorium tungsten electrodes, cerium tungsten electrode, lanthanum tungsten electrode, yttrium tungsten electrode, composite electrode (Triad electrode). Conventional diameter containing Ø1.6mm, Ø2.4mm and Ø3.2mm, but the length is 150mm or 175 mm. Its international standard is ISO6848. The function of tungsten electrode is to conduct current, arc ignition and maintain the normal combustion, thus requiring a larger tungsten available current, high melting point, less wear and tear, and other good features.
