MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes produce 10 times more arc strikes than conventional thoriated tungsten electrodes under the same conditions.
Maintains consistent performance over a current range from 0 - 300 Amps.
Developed with the end user in mind, these electrodes eliminate the radiotoxic thoria present in standard, red-tipped tungsten electrodes. MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes are non-thoriated, non-radioactive, and non-carcinogenic.
Each tungsten welding electrode carries a total traceability identification, ensuring quality and reliability.
MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes can be used for welding steels and alloys with DC and aluminium with AC techniques and provide stable performance over the current range from 0 to 300 Amps. The carefully balanced mix of non-radiotoxic dopants gives up to 10 times the number of arc strikes compared to conventional 2% thoriated tungsten electrodes under identical conditions.
Techweld® MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes consist of a unique blend of dopants that allow them to perform at high, low, and medium current ranges with TIG (GTAW) welding of steels, nickel, and cobalt-based materials, as well as titanium and aluminium alloys. This blend greatly enhances electrode life by significantly increasing the number of arcs strikes before re-grinding is necessary, offering up to 10 times better performance than thoriated tungsten electrodes.
MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes contain a blend of rare earth dopants to replace thoria. These dopants are non-radioactive and mixed in precise proportions using statistical proportional control procedures, ensuring the electrodes are made to the same high standards every time. The unique packaging guarantees product quality, reliability, repeatability, consistency, and traceability.
MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes conform to EN ISO 06848 and ANSI/AWS A5 12m-98 standards.
"The purge meters are second to none."
"I am a huge fan of Huntingdon products and have talked to others over the years about using them. The purge meters are second to none. I own and use regularly my PurgEye 100 and my PurgEye 300. I think somewhere, I still have my original Argweld® MKV monitor, which sadly no longer powers up. I am a scarce breed because I have 3 degrees and a complete academic understanding of metallurgy, but more importantly, welding science; I also have over 20 years of hands-on experience in welding on drill floors, firing lines, and vessel shops. I quite literally have a passion for old-fashioned welding! Excellent product, guys!"

"One of the best, if not the best, residual oxygen detector instruments on the market."
"I believe the PurgEye to be one of the best if not the best, residual oxygen detector instruments on the market with its digital residual oxygen level LED display readouts measuring as low as 0.01% and its large, user-friendly viewing screen making it easier for me to read. I also believe the PurgEye has great accuracy in residual oxygen, with speedy measurements displayed within seconds. The PurgEye is a far cry from the old school homemade 'use a cigarette lighter' to check purge gas flow system."

"Purge monitors are a necessity."
"I can personally vouch for purge monitors. When working with medium to large-diameter exotic pipework, they can prevent you from having a terrible day! I've only used the older model, which was a godsend. Anyone, from the welder who has had to carry out weld repairs due to root weld oxidation (or coking) on such materials, to the directors facing an expensive bill for re-work and possible tarnished company reputation, to the client with their project now running behind schedule - knows exactly what I mean. Purge monitors are a necessity."
