Presharpened Tungsten Electrodes 2% Thoriated
EWTh-2, WT20
 Normal Quality: Re Oxideis Coarse and Undispersed         AMT Quality: Re Oxide is Fine and Homogenous Dispersed
Quality Key-points
Quality of Tungsten Electrodes is mostly depending on what Rare Earth metal oxide in tungsten, the percentage and the micro uniformity.

As above micro pictures showed: the Rare Earth metal oxide in AMT tungsten electrodes is Fine and Homogenous dispersed, while the Rare Earth metal oxide in normal tungsten electrodes is coarse and undispersed.
The fine quality of AMT Tungsten Electrodes is owing to the process during Rare Earth metal nitrate dipping uniformly with tungsten, and strict sintering temperature control.
1. Pre-sharpened or pre-ground Tungsten Electrodes by grinders or sharpeners
AMT's preground or presharpened tungsten electrodes are pre-sharpened in the longitudinal direction by machine grinders or sharpeners rather than by hands at very consistent quality, which keeps the welding arc is easier starting and higher penetration than the presharpened tungsten electrodes in the circle direction.
