Description
Blue Demon EWCe-2 2% ceriated electrodes are made of tungsten with around 2% cerium oxide (ceria). They offer easy starting, better arc stability, and less vaporization or burn-off. These non-radioactive electrodes work well with both AC and DC polarity, following AWS A5.12 standards. The size is 3/16', and the dimensions are 8 x 3 x 1 inches.
Using these Blue Demon 2% ceriated tungsten electrodes is a breeze. First, make sure your welding machine is set to the appropriate AC or DC polarity as specified. When starting the arc, you'll notice it's much easier compared to other electrodes. Just bring the electrode close to the workpiece and start the welding process. As you weld, enjoy the stable arc that these electrodes provide. This means a smoother and more consistent weld. For safety, always wear the proper protective gear like welding gloves and a face shield. These electrodes are non - radioactive, but it's still important to work in a well - ventilated area to avoid inhaling any fumes. To maintain these electrodes, keep them in a dry place when not in use. Avoid dropping or hitting them hard as this can damage the tip and affect their performance. If you notice the electrode starting to wear out or the tip becoming dull, it's time to replace it with a new one from the pack. With proper use and maintenance, these electrodes will serve you well for many welding projects.
