About Tungsten Rods

At Shivshakti Metal, we manufacture and supply tungsten rods and tungsten electrodes designed for TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding applications.

Renowned for their exceptional heat resistance, durability, and electrical conductivity, our tungsten rods deliver clean, stable arcs and ensure precise control during high-quality welding operations.

Our range of TIG electrodes is suitable for both manual and automatic welding systems, covering all major grades such as pure tungsten, thoriated, ceriated, lanthanated, and zirconiated tungsten electrodes.

As a leading tungsten rod supplier in India, Shivshakti Metal provides industrial-grade electrodes and tungsten bars used across aerospace, automotive, fabrication, and power plant industries, where precision and consistency are critical.
