What Are the Diameters of Tungsten Electrodes?

Tungsten electrodes come in a variety of diameter specifications to meet the needs of different welding processes and equipment. Common tungsten electrode diameters generally include 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.6 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.2 mm, and 4.0 mm.

Among them, thinner electrodes such as 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm are mainly used for precision welding or welding of small electronic components, allowing for more detailed heat input control. The 1.6 mm and 2.4 mm electrodes are the most widely used sizes and are suitable for most manual and automated argon arc welding processes, balancing current carrying capacity and heat concentration effects. The thicker 3.2 mm and 4.0 mm electrodes are suitable for high-current welding of larger thickness materials, and can withstand stronger heat loads to ensure continuous welding stability.

In addition, there are some special specifications of tungsten electrodes that can be customized according to customer needs to meet special applications in different industrial fields. Selecting the appropriate diameter tungsten electrode can help achieve optimal welding results and electrode life.
