Assorted Tungsten, 3 PK – 2% Lanthanated, 2% Ceriated, Multi-Mix(Purple) Electrode Sizes: 3 32

2% lanthanated tungsten electrodes can handle even more amperage than 2% thoriated. Not only that, but it rounds off better on A C. 2% lanth works especially well on inverters like the Miller Dynasty 200dx and Dynasty 350 where A C frequencies are typically set to 100 or higher.

2% Ceriated Tungsten performs well in DC welding and arc starting at low current settings, and can be used proficiently in AC processes.

• 2% Ceriated (Grey)
• Principal Oxide: 1.8–2.2% Cerium Oxide
• Non-Radioactive – best for use in Alternating Current (A C) or Direct Current (D C) applications using inverter- or transformer-based constant current power sources
• Good for: low-alloyed steels, non corroding steels, aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys
• Good ignition and re-ignition properties; long service life; excellent arc stability
• Low erosion rate; best at low amperage range; no spitting; good D C arc starts and stability
• Composed of 97.3% Tungsten, 1.8%-2.2% Cerium, and .5% Other
• Materials Welded: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Nickel Alloy, and Titanium
• 
  Purple multi mix tungsten is a good all purpose electrode for both Steel and Aluminum and is designed for excellent restart capability.

  Our own tests showed that low amperage starts on really thin metal were crisp.

  Purple holds up well at higher amps too on both DC and AC
