    Description

    The higher thoria content in the EWTh-2
    electrode causes the operating characteristic
    improvements to be more pronounced than
    in the lower thoria content EWTh-1. The
    additional thoria also provides about 20
    percent higher current-carrying capacity,
    longer life and resistance to contamination
    of the weld. Should it be desired to use these
    electrodes for AC welding, then balling can
    be accomplished by briefly, and carefully,
    welding with DC electrode positive prior to
    welding with AC. During AC welding, the
    balled end does not melt and so emission is
    not as good as from a liquid ball on an EWP
    electrode. Note: If electrode grinding is used
    special precautions relative to ventilation
    should always be considered to avoid
    ingestion of dust.
