We do not recommend using this electrode unless you have a self contained tungsten grinder, as the dust from sharpening is slightly radioactive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2% Thoriated (EWTh-2) alloy increases electrode life. Higher electron emissions result in better arc starting and arc stability. Maintains a sharp point. Resistance to tungsten contamination of the weld.
