Tungsten Pure 3.2mm x 175mm — Green Tip TIG Welding Electrode (WP)
Premium 99.5% Pure Tungsten Electrode for AC TIG Welding
Achieve clean, stable arcs on aluminum and magnesium with this Pure Tungsten (WP) electrode, engineered for reliable performance in AC TIG (GTAW) welding applications. Identified by its signature green tip, this 3.2mm x 175mm electrode is a shop-standard size trusted by fabricators, welders, and metalworking professionals for consistent, high-quality results.
Key Features
- Diameter: 3.2mm (1/8") — ideal for medium-amperage welding tasks
- Length: 175mm — standard length for most TIG torches
- Purity: 99.5% pure tungsten, offering excellent arc stability on AC current
- Color Code: Green tip (industry-standard identification for pure tungsten)
- Best For: AC welding of aluminum, aluminum alloys, and magnesium
Why Choose Pure Tungsten Electrodes?
Pure tungsten electrodes are the go-to choice for AC TIG welding because they form a smooth, balled tip that produces a stable, cone-shaped arc — perfect for softer, non-ferrous metals like aluminum and magnesium. Compared to thoriated or ceriated alternatives, pure tungsten offers superior arc balance on AC output, making it a preferred option for general-purpose aluminum welding in fabrication, automotive, and maintenance work.
Applications
- Aluminum sheet and structural welding
- Magnesium alloy fabrication
- General-purpose AC TIG welding
- Automotive and marine repair
- Light-to-medium industrial fabrication
