CK Worldwide T187GC2 1/8" 2% Ceriated Tungsten Electrode

CK 1/8" 2% Ceriated Tungsten Electrodes deliver reliable arc starting and stable welding performance for both AC and DC TIG applications. Engineered for professional welders working on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum projects across all welding positions. These 2% ceriated tungsten electrodes offer superior arc initiation compared to pure tungsten while maintaining excellent arc stability throughout the weld. The 1/8" diameter provides versatility for medium amperage applications, making them ideal for general-purpose TIG welding in fabrication and repair work. Key Specifications Diameter: 1/8" (3.2mm) Composition: 2% Ceriated Tungsten Amperage Range: 75-150 amps Welding Process: GTAW (TIG) Current Type: AC/DC compatible Applications: Steel, stainless steel, aluminum Position: All position welding Manufacturer SKU: T187GC2 The ceriated tungsten composition provides excellent arc starting characteristics while offering longer electrode life compared to thoriated alternatives. These electrodes maintain their point geometry well during extended welding sessions, reducing downtime for electrode preparation and ensuring consistent weld quality. Suitable for both manual and automated TIG welding applications, these electrodes perform reliably in production environments and precision fabrication work where consistent arc performance is critical.
