0.8% Zirconiated Tungsten Electrode | White Tip TIG Rod (10-Pack)

The 0.8% Zirconiated TIG Tungsten Electrode (White Tip) is a high-performance welding tungsten designed for precision TIG (GTAW) applications on both AC and DC currents. Zirconiated electrodes offer a stable arc start, excellent arc stability and resistance to contamination, making them ideal for welding aluminium, magnesium and other light alloys as well as a wide range of steels.

With a 0.8 % zirconia (ZrO₂) formulation and the distinctive white identification tip, these electrodes provide smooth TIG performance, reduced spatter and long service life - perfect for professional, workshop and industrial welding operations.

Conforms to ANSI/AWS A5.12-92 and BS EN ISO 6848:2015 specifications for TIG welding tungsten electrodes.

Key Features

0.8% Zirconiated Composition: White tip identification for 0.8 % zirconia-alloyed tungsten. Delivers stable arc and excellent starting characteristics.

Versatile AC/DC Use: Performs well on both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) TIG welding systems.

Excellent Arc Stability: Provides a smooth, consistent arc with reduced spatter and contamination risk.

Long Electrode Life: Zirconiated tungsten resists burn-off and extends electrode life compared with pure tungsten.

Ideal for Light Alloys: Particularly suited to aluminium and magnesium TIG welding, while also effective on steels and stainless steels.

Classic White Tip: Quick visual identification in workshop settings for ease of use and reduced mix-ups.

Professional Grade: Reliable, consistent performance for production environments, fabricators, and trade professionals.

Shielding / Application: Designed for TIG welding with Argon shielding gas on aluminium alloys, light metals, steels, stainless and other TIG-appropriate materials.
