# WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED WHEN SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE TUNGSTEN FOR THE TIG PROCESS? When selecting the correct tungsten electrode for the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding process, the following factors must be taken into account: — ## 1. **Type of Current Used** – **DCEN (Direct Current Electrode Negative):** Pure tungsten or thoriated tungsten electrodes are recommended, as they withstand high heat concentrations at the weld pool. – **AC (Alternating Current):** Pure tungsten or zirconiated tungsten electrodes are preferred, since the alternating current causes the electrode tip to form a balled end, which helps stabilize the arc. – **DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive):** Rarely used in TIG welding due to excessive heat buildup at the electrode. — ## 2. **Type of Base Metal to Be Welded** – **Carbon steel and stainless steel:** Thoriated (EWTh-2) or ceriated (EWCe-2) tungsten electrodes are commonly used with
The first thing to do is identify the base material to be welded and which tungsten electrode options…
