E3® Tungsten Electrode 18-7E3
Pkg of 10 - 7 inch 1/8 diameter E3 tungsten electrode. Superior to 2% Thoriated tungsten in electrode life and arc stability. E3 is made from a combination of 3 oxides and is not radioactive, like thoriated tungsten. E3 runs cooler than other types of tungsten electrode and provides fast, consistent arc starts. It is capable of performing in both AC and DC welding applications.
