Diamond Ground 2% Lanthanated Tungsten Electrode LA2-040

Reasonable price for good quality lanthanated electrodes. Shipped promptly.

Yup. It works

Absolutely the best all around electrode. We won't be buying anything else, our welders love them.

Awesome tungsten very happy welding!

Good Product - Good Value & NO hidden shipping or handling costs...! And that is great..!!

This is a good, but not great tungsten. Diamond Group brings in a lot of Chinese tungsten and I have a feeling this is some of it. Pay a premium price and you get the West German tungsten, but I do well with Miller/Weldcraft. Wish Cyberweld would carry Weldcraft 2% Lanthanated Tungsten WL2332X7. It is a better tungsten. I like Cyberweld because the prices are fair and the service is good, but I have to go elsewhere for this tungsten. Not Cyberweld's fault, as the name of the game is a good price for their customers.

Great tungsten electrodes, great price and fast shipping !!

This is the best of the best. Most of the tungsten and other supplies come from China and they aren't worth the savings!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like most other people I was pointed in this direction from Jodi from Wedlingtips and tricks. I'm new to tig welding and did not want to spend a fortune on the supplies to learn. Cheapest I found and delivered superbly fast. I'm new to this so I don't know exactly how they are supposed to perform just as of yet. But it welds fine for me. Still have yet to try aluminum with it though.

A good product - well made..

Christmas gift - But have purchased Miller Mig Welder and other items here last Christmas for Grand child - everything works great - I'm sure all of these items will do the same.

I ordered these based on others reviews and Jody's Tips and Tricks review. They work extremely well and helped me learn a little quicker on aluminum. I was having a hard time with the thoriated.

These work very well. I use them for everything.

Have used them on mild steel and they work great

Good quality

As others have noted, these hold their point for a really long time.

I really like these electrodes. I bought them since Jody from Welding Tips and Tricks recommended them. You can contaminate them and keep welding, which I do a lot since I am a beginner. I have not tried them on aluminum yet, but they are good on steel.

The tungsten shipped in a timely manner. Works great, ive used it with steel and it seems to hold up better than the E3 and is cleaner to work with. Ill be buying more sizes if it works as well on aluminum.

These work great on every metal I've tried them on.

good price and quick delivery

Super service via internet; great selection. My first place to look for welding supplies

A long time ago I wrote to Diamond Ground Products and asked for a sample electrode to try out, since I had heard good things about their products. They sent me a 2% Lanthanated sample and one of their catalogs, along with some other informational materials. One look at the electrode they had sent and I was already impressed. The finish was smooth, clean and flawless compared to the other electrodes I had been using that had been sourced from China. The performance was way better than any other electrode I had used previously. Sadly when I wanted to purchase more of these 2% Lanthanated electrodes, Cyberweld did not carry them. But now they do!

Kudos to both companies for the great products and outstanding customer service they provide. They are a rare breed these days....

Have only welded some 1/8 6061 and it worked just fine. Hopefully, it will work just as well on steel.

I've done a fair amount of stainless over the years, and this Lanthanated Tungsten Electrode is by far the best. I can't wait to try it on aluminum this weekend!

The title says it all for me.

Like another reviewer I bought these based on the comments Jody made over at weldingtipsandtricks.com

I was previously using 1/16" 2% thoriated but decided to try something new because apparently thoriated electrodes are radioactive.

I'm glad I did. I find the arc on these to be more stable and less temperamental. With the thoriated electrodes if I dipped the tip into the molten puddle I'd have to stop immediately as the performance is horrible. I'm not sure how/why but with these lanthanated electrodes I can finish the weld even after dipping.

I liked the 1/16" so much I bought the 3/32" as well.

Bought these on recommendation from Jody at welding tips and tricks. I weld mostly aluminum and they work great.

Works great both on steel and aluminum

They have the best selection of welding products at great prices

very nice tungsten long lasting compatable with thoriated
