Ceriated tungsten electrode
A thoria-free tungsten electrode doped with cerium oxide, designed for DC and AC welding at low to medium current ranges.
Ceroxide electrodes are a good choice for TIG welding. They run stable and last longer because ceroxide makes the tungsten wear less. You can use them for DC and AC, but they feel most comfortable at low currents. It's important to keep the electrode clean and not overheat, otherwise the tip breaks quickly. Otherwise, they don't give you any trouble during welding and give you a clean, stable arc.
