Red WT20 Thoriated TIG Tungstens for precise DC welding
Red WT20 Thoriated TIG Tungstens are one of the most reliable and widely used options for DC welding in demanding applications. Made of 98% tungsten and approximately 2% thorium oxide, they offer excellent arc stability and reliable ignition at lower amperages.
Ideal for structural and performance-grade metals
Recommended for welding:
- Carbon steel
- Stainless steel
- Nickel alloys
- Titanium in specific applications
Stable during long welds and well suited for motorsport and high-performance fabrication.
Why professionals still rely on them
Despite newer alternatives, red thoriated tungstens are valued for:
- Consistent ignition even at low amps
- High wear resistance and durability
- Stable arc for critical welding applications
Available sizes
Packs of 10 pieces in the following sizes:
- 1/16" x 6"
- 5/64" x 6"
- 3/32" x 6"
Workshop use and application
Ideal for fabricating chassis parts, manifolds, reinforcements and high-load welds. When precision and reliability matter, these are the ones to trust.
Usage tips
Use with DCEN (direct current electrode negative) and proper grinding. Due to mild radioactivity, handle with care during sharpening and storage.
