What Industries Are Tungsten Electrodes Mainly Used in?

Tungsten electrodes are widely used in many industries due to their high melting point, high hardness, and good electrical and thermal conductivity, mainly including:

Welding Industry

It is used as an electrode material in argon arc welding (TIG welding) and plasma arc welding (PAW) to ensure arc stability and weld quality.

It is especially suitable for aerospace, automobile manufacturing, petrochemical and other fields with high welding quality requirements.

Electronics

Cathode and hot cathode materials in electron microscopes and electron guns;

The electrodes for making light bulbs, especially halogen and xenon lamps.

Light Source Manufacturing

Tungsten wire electrodes for making light sources such as xenon lamps, halogen lamps, and ultraviolet lamps are made because of their high temperature resistance and good conductivity.

Vacuum And High-temperature Equipment

Heating elements of high-temperature furnaces;

Used as heating wire and cathode material in the vacuum coating industry.

Metallurgical Industry

Used as tungsten electrodes in vacuum melting furnaces or induction furnaces;

Auxiliary electrodes for metal cutting and welding equipment.

Medical Devices

Tungsten targets and electrode materials in X-ray tubes and radiation therapy equipment.

New Energy Field

Used in the manufacture of functional materials in fuel cells and certain sensors.
