Containing 99.50% tungsten, this electrode takes advantage of tungsten's exceptional hardness and high-temperature resistance — the highest melting point of any metal at 3,410 degrees Celsius — to carry welding current reliably to the arc. When heated, the electrode forms a clean balled tip that delivers stable arc performance. Each pack contains 10 electrodes, each measuring 7 inches in length and 0.040 inches in diameter, identified by a green color band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePure tungsten electrodes are well suited for AC welding with a balanced wave and AC sine wave welding, particularly on aluminum and magnesium base metals. These are a standard choice in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and field operations where aluminum and magnesium TIG welding is routine. Because pure tungsten does not provide the strong arc starts associated with thoriated or ceriated electrodes, it is not typically selected for DC welding applications. Licensed welders and certified welding operators working on aluminum structural, automotive, and general fabrication work will find this electrode appropriate for their process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e99.50% pure tungsten composition for reliable AC arc stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForms a clean balled tip when heated — ideal for balanced-wave and sine-wave AC welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGreen color band for quick identification per industry standard color coding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.040 inch diameter suited for lower amperage, fine-detail TIG work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7 inch electrode length for standard TIG torch compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 10-piece pack for shop or field inventory stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard GTAW (TIG) torches accepting 0.040 inch diameter electrodes.

Ensure the collet and collet body in the TIG torch are the correct size for a 0.040 inch electrode before installation. Follow applicable AWS and shop safety standards for electrode handling, storage, and disposal. Do not use pure tungsten electrodes as a substitute for thoriated or ceriated electrodes on DC processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTungsten Purity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 99.50%\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrode Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.040 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrode Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWelding Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: GTAW (TIG), AC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and magnesium welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 840349202563\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: XTRWELD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: WTPURE040\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"XTRWELD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342798684466,"sku":"WTPURE040","price":202.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547068.jpg?v=1782006973","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/xtrweld-wtpure040-pure-tungsten-electrode-0-040-in-10-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
