Kosiy CK T3327GTM LaYZr Tungsten Electrode 3/32" x 7", 10 Pack

It took a while to arrive in UK from the USA. Really nice electrode I welded some 6mm thick mild steel pipe at 160amps and the tip did the whole job without loosing it's point and made for a very smooth weld...wellade CK world. I'm really enjoying them. BTW I ground the tip particularly sharp. 10⁰ worked like a charm.

I just did some experimenting with my 3/32" when I first got them to see if there was a noticeable difference to the ceriated and lanthanated that I use for steel and aluminum, respectively. Aluminum was first. I ground a nice sharp point for my inverter and ran a few 4043 beads on 1/4" 6061. The standout difference I noticed was after several rods, there was no splitting on the very tip, and very little ball formation on the point even running at 30% EP. No spitting either, though it was a short session and I don't get much from the La electrodes either. During the session, being an old shaky guy, I duffed the electrode a few times, but it shook it off like a champ and I kept on going. Then a fly flew into my arc and exploded carbon all over. same result, just kept going. End of session a small sphere had formed but little else and didn't have to re-sharpen once. Then on to steel. I put a nice slender point on the electrode and ran some beads on different thicknesses from .040 to 1/2" steel and some stainless. The several rods later, the point looked the same as when I started. It stayed clean and sharp. Further, to test the low amperage behavior, I welded some rod remnants together. My machine has a hard start, so it takes bit of control to stick an .040 rod together. All went well and I'm really considering putting my La and Ce on the shelf and just working with these. Really happy with them and will be getting some 1/16"

Layzr.... says it all. What an amazing composition and function. I hold 28 years in my trade and have ran thousands of feet of bead, this product is unlike anything g I've used before. Don't hesitate, buy them.

Good stainless use and aluminum little job

This was mentioned by "The Fabrication Series" on You Tube and I decided to try this in place of my normal gray and let me just tell you...it keeps its point FAR LONGER and handles the amperage great. Arc is crisp, doesn't wonder. The price is fair because tungsten is simply expensive,we all know it. CK makes fantastic products, never disappoints.

Great electrodes for every application I've tried. They are never the best for any given process, but with how versatile they are is always a set I have around. Don' have any other electrode than can do aluminum and mild steel. It makes things simple when I don't need to keep track of tips and keep swapping when I'm using one of these. If you are only welding one type of metal all day, get the proper electrode. If you weld random stuff all day, get these. The best metal I find these work on is stainless and are equal to the 2% reds, the worst was aluminum and almost makes me want to change back to green tips
