We get asked all the time “what is the proper stick-out for the tungsten electrode on a TIG \/ GTAW \/ HeliArc torch?”<\/p>\n

That’s a tough question because there are many variables based on the type of front-end parts being used on the torch — and — the welding application. As we all know high-quality, consistently good looking and strong TIG welds are a combination of art and science.<\/p>\n

\"TungstenWith this new tungsten electrode stick-out tool <\/a>you can reduce some of the variables by accurately measuring the tungsten stick-out by 1\/16″ (1.6mm) increments up to 1″ (25.4mm).<\/p>\n

It’s constructed of CNC machined brass with knurled locking sleeve and includes a key ring holder with nylon strap and spring type aluminum hook loop… and is available online at Arc-Zone.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
