Pre-ground Tungsten
The ORBISTAR® series of pre-ground tungsten electrodes can last more than two times longer than other tungstens and reduce arc fault failures by up to 80 percent. The company offers different combinations of tungsten length, diameter, point geometry, surface finish and type, including thoriated and non-thoriated options, to meet specific application requirements.
These electrodes provide superior arc stability and arc starting performance because of greater element purity, tighter control of grain size, more homogenous oxide distribution and strict manufacturing process controls.
