Binzel E3 Pro Tungsten (Pk 10 )

The E3^® PRO tungsten electrode with the color code purple & gold can be used for all processes. It is a further development of the successful E3^® from ABICOR BINZEL. Thanks to its special composition of rare earth oxides and a newly developed manufacturing process, its structure is particularly fine and homogeneous. As a result, it has even better ignition properties – in the low ampere range these are even significantly better – and has an even longer service life than its predecessor. The E3^® PRO TIG electrode can be used with direct current as well as alternating current, for manual welding as well as in automated applications. In addition, the E3^® PRO is absolutely non-toxic for people and the environment. If you want to play it safe when TIG welding, the E3^® PRO is a tungsten electrode that can be used for all applications and materials.

Before a tungsten electrode can be used, it must be ground, because in addition to the grinding quality, the grinding direction affects the arc. Important when grinding the TIG needle: The grinding direction must be longitudinal (axial) to the electrode! A bevel in the transverse direction (radial) to the TIG welding electrode causes a very restless, unstable arc. In addition, if incorrectly ground, the smallest tungsten particles can get into the weld pool and contaminate it. An axially ground tungsten electrode has good ignition properties, a stable arc and favorable electron emission.
