Roger from the Oak Ridge National Labs<\/a> contacted us looking for 1\/2″ diameter tungsten electrodes…
\nIf you’re not familiar with Oak Ridge, they are a <\/p>\n

“multiprogram science and technology laboratory managed for the U.S. Department of Energy by UT-Battelle, LLC. Scientists and engineers at ORNL conduct basic and applied research and development to create scientific knowledge and technological solutions that strengthen the nation’s leadership in key areas of science; increase the availability of clean, abundant energy; restore and protect the environment; and contribute to national security.<\/p>\n

ORNL also performs other work for the Department of Energy, including isotope production, information management, and technical program management, and provides research and technical assistance to other organizations.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One can only guess what they’re welding up there!
\n\"Tungsten
\nI’m pretty sure they contacted us because Arc-Zone.com offers the widest variety of tungsten electrodes for TIG and Plasma Arc Welding applications. We offer quality brand names like ArcTime\u2122 , Amplify\u2122 MultiStrike\u2122, SYLVANIA and Weldcraft\u00ae <\/a>and all the popular blends like 2% Ceriated, 1.5% Lanthanated, 2% Thoriated, Pure Tungsten, Zirconiated Tungsten, Rare Earth blends and the new ArcTime Hybrid\u2122 Electrodes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We also stock (ready for immediate delivery) the most common diameters for welding from .040″ to 1\/8″ Other diameters up to 1\/4″ are usually available to ship in a couple of days. <\/p>\n

But 1\/2″ diameter tungsten electrodes– that’s a different story. For a request like that, we would need to quote a special run of 1\/2″ diameter…. <\/p>\n

If you want to learn more about tungsten, check out the newest addition to the Arc-Zone.com family, TungstenElectrodesOnline.com, a comprehensive resource website for information about tungsten, tungsten production, the properties of tungsten and specifically the use of tungsten electrodes in TIG and Plasma Arc Welding<\/a>. And if you have special need for tungsten electrodes, use the handy Request A Quote form<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
