Frequently re-grinding wornelectrode tips improveweld quality & lowerstungsten usage. Waiting untilthetip is completely worn, requires grinding off more contaminated material, resulting in highertungsten usage, costing you time & money. Process Industries Pressure vessel, storage and piping manufacturers, with a focus on onshore petrochemical and refineries. For most applications , I dont like it...too much trouble. When it becomes this time consuming to sharpen electrodes, it discourages use of the equipment.

The genuine leather surface provides a polished edge for tools that need a razor sharp finish such as knives. The leather strop doubles up as a sheath to protect the diamond stone. Ask four welders about the best tool to sharpen tungsten electrodes for TIG welding, and you’ll get five opinions about what to use. The truth is that there are many useful tools for sharpening electrodes. Each one has advantages and disadvantages. Unlike sharpening knives or woodworking tools, tungsten sharpening is a power-tool only business. There are no hand tools that can do this job. Tungsten Electrode Sharpeners These factors mean there are many advantages to using a tungsten electrode sharpener instead of conventionally available power tools.Once you have chosen a tool to sharpen the electrode, these steps will give you a clean electrode that offers a smooth, steady arc. 1. Cut or Break Off Contamination is the most common angle for grinding electrodes. This angle will work for most situations. If you are grinding without a guide, you can find 22.5 ° this way: You hit it on the head bro. The sharpeners can make a difference but lets be honest we have all seen some pretty amazing welds made by old school guys … sharpening tungstenNot rated yet

So how do you sharpen tungsten for TIG welding? You need to choose a sharpening tool, then follow six simple steps. Before you touch the rod to the grinder, hold it horizontal, perpendicular to the wheel. This is 90 ° If you have no other tools, you can actually use a cutting torch to sharpen your electrode. To do it, you need to get the electrode red hot using the torch. After that, you can squeeze the lever and move the flame up and down the tip of it. The flame should taper the end of the tungsten. Now slant the rod halfway again. It should be three-fourths of the way down from horizontal to vertical, or one-fourth of the way up from vertical. This angle is 22.5 °, just right for sharpening the tip of the electrode When using these crude ways of grinding, you will need to attach the wolfram rod to a drill. So that you will get a uniform grinding at all sides of the electrode.

How much time does it take to grind the tungsten? That is a factor too. If it works fast, you can do more work in a short time. Choose the one with the best price:
