Our Tungsten Lineup
We offer a comprehensive selection of tungsten alloys, each color-coded for easy identification and optimized for specific welding environments:
- Rare Earth (Purple Tip): The ultimate all-purpose electrode. Non-radioactive and high-performing, it excels in both AC and DC applications, offering stable arc starts and a longer life span than traditional thoriated tungsten.
- 2% Thoriated (Red Tip): The industry standard for DC welding. Known for its exceptional ease of starting and high current capacity, it is a favorite for carbon and stainless steel.
- 2% Lanthanated (Blue Tip) & 1.5% Lanthanated (Gold Tip): Excellent non-radioactive alternatives that work well on both AC and DC. They offer great arc starting and low burn-off rates.
- 2% Ceriated (Gray Tip): Optimized for low-amperage DC welding, making it ideal for thin sheet metal and delicate orbital tube welding.
- Pure Tungsten (Green Tip): Specifically designed for AC welding of aluminum and magnesium, providing great arc stability with a balled tip.
- Zirconated (Brown & White Tip): Highly resistant to contamination, these electrodes are perfect for high-quality AC welding where maintaining a clean, balled end is critical.
Performance You Can Depend On
Washington Alloy is committed to providing the welding community with products that embody Trusted Quality and Undeniable Performance. Our tungsten electrodes are more than just consumables; they are a critical component of your welding success.
