1/8-inch ceriated tungsten pack
The T187GC2 provides the 1/8 in diameter in CK Worldwide’s grey-coded ceriated electrode range. It can be used in suitable AC or DC TIG setups when the electrode preparation and machine settings match the application.
T187GC2 specifications
- Diameter: 1/8 in, manufacturer-listed metric size 3.2 mm.
- Nominal length: 7 in.
- Package: 10 electrodes.
- Type: 2% ceriated; specified cerium-oxide content 1.8–2.2%.
- Colour: grey, formerly orange.
Check the complete torch setup
Use a collet or adapter sized for the electrode and verify that the torch arrangement supports the planned current and duty cycle. A larger electrode does not increase the torch’s own rating.
Choose polarity, waveform, tip geometry and operating current from the applicable equipment guidance and welding procedure. Prepare a clean tip and set the extension to suit the cup and joint access. Do not infer a universal amperage limit or guaranteed service life from the electrode diameter.
Other diameters
If a smaller electrode is specified, see the 3/32 in T3327GC2 pack or 1/16 in T1167GC2 pack. The CK TG1 gauge helps repeat the selected electrode extension.
