AMP ranges for Tungsten electrodes.

03-13-2010, 10:14 AM

last night I blew the tip off an electrode a couple of times because the AMPS were too high. I remember seeing a chart somewhere that gave you the figures but I can not find it. Could someone help me with

Ceriated Tungsten electrode
Min and Max amps allowed
for these sizes
0.020, 0.040, 1/16, 1/8, 3/16.

Cheers for any help,
James.
