FAQs
1. What are tungsten rods used for?
Tungsten rods are primarily used as non-consumable electrodes in TIG welding, known for precision, arc stability, and durability.
2. Which tungsten electrode is best for stainless steel welding?
2% Thoriated (WT20) or 2% Lanthanated (WL20) tungsten electrodes are ideal for DC welding of stainless steel.
3. What is the difference between pure and alloyed tungsten electrodes?
Pure tungsten (WP) is used for AC welding, while alloyed electrodes (Thoriated, Ceriated, etc.) offer better performance in DC or mixed polarity welding.
4. Do you supply tungsten bars for industrial use?
Yes, we supply tungsten bars and rods in various diameters and lengths for fabrication and electrode manufacturing.
5. Do you export tungsten rods internationally?
Yes. Shivshakti Metal exports tungsten rods and TIG electrodes to global markets with full quality certification.
