MultiStrike tungsten electrodes from Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT eliminate thoria risk

Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s blue-tipped MultiStrike® tungsten electrodes contain a mix of nonradioactive rare-earth elements, eliminating the risk to health posed by radioactive thoriated tungsten electrodes.
According to the company, its electrodes give at least 10 times more arc-striking capacity than other tungsten electrodes. This is because electrodes that work at higher temperatures cause their oxide additions to burn out or evaporate faster than this electrode’s nonradioactive ingredients.
The electrode can be used for welding aluminum with the AC process, as well as steels and alloys with the DC process.
