Weldporn 2% Lanthanated TIG Welding Tungsten Electrodes (Blue / EWLa-2)
Weldporn 2% Lanthanated Tunsten Welding Electrodes (TE2L) are a general purpose electrode used for both AC and DC currents using inverter or transformer based constant current power sources. Good for low-alloyed steels, non corroding steels, aluminum, magnesium, titanium, nickel and copper alloys. Very stable tip geometry, runs cooler than 2% thoriated with longer life, low to medium amperage range.
Available Diameters:
- 1/16"
- 3/32"
- 1/8"
