EWZr-1 (WZR3) — Zirconiated Tungsten Electrode (Brown) — Overview
EWZr-1 Zirconiated tungsten electrodes (WZR3 grade) are designed for AC TIG (GTAW) welding of aluminum and magnesium in high-purity applications. As a non-radioactive electrode, WZR3 forms a balled end with ease under AC current and provides superior current capacity with minimal tungsten contamination — the preferred choice where weld purity is critical. Conforms to AWS A5.12. Pack of 10 × 7-inch electrodes. Ships across Canada from North York, Ontario.
