Does the Mechanical Strength of Tungsten Electrodes Matter?

The mechanical strength of tungsten electrode is very important, which is reflected in the following aspects:

Firstly, tungsten electrodes need to withstand high thermal and mechanical stresses during the welding process. If the mechanical strength is insufficient, the electrode is prone to breakage or deformation during operation, installation, or welding, affecting the continuity and stability of the weld.

Secondly, good mechanical strength ensures that the electrode is not easy to wear and ablation in a long-term high-temperature arcing environment, thereby extending the service life of the electrode, reducing the frequency of replacement, and improving production efficiency.

In addition, tungsten electrodes with high mechanical strength perform better in automated and robotic welding, can withstand torch vibration and shock, maintain the stability of the shape of the electrode head, and ensure that the arc is concentrated and stable.

Finally, the mechanical strength of tungsten electrodes also affects their processing properties, such as wear resistance and breakage resistance during sharpening and forming.
