3M Welding Helmets

Stand out from the crowd! The 3M? Speedglas? 100 Welding Shield 'Graphic Editions' are exceptionally light in weight, but powerful in performance. The shields have excellent optical quality, reliable light-to-dark switching and are available in a choice of 5 graphic designs. They can be used for most arc welding processes, such as stick (MMA), MIG/MAG and many TIG applications. The easy-to-use Speedglas 100 Shield is the ideal 'first' auto-darkening shield for hobby welders, farmers, DIY enthusiasts and maintenance or construction workers who weld infrequently but value high levels of comfort and excellent protection.

The 3M? Speedglas? Variable Shade Filter has 5 user-selectable dark shades, from shade 8 to shade 12, and a light shade of 3. It benefits from 3 sensitivity settings: a normal setting for most types of welding (both indoors and outdoors), a setting for when other welders are working nearby, and a setting for low-current or stable arc (e.g. TIG) welding.
Speedglas? 100V Filter specifications:
Approvals eye protection: Conforms to EN379.
Classification: 1/2/2/3.
Switching time, light-dark: 100 - 250ms.
UV/IR protection: Shade 12 (permanent).
Viewing area: 44 x 93.

2% Thoriated Red Tungsten Electrodes

Most commonly used tungsten electrode. Suitable for both AC and DC welding on carbon, stainless steels, nickel, copper and titanium alloys. Preferred for their longevity and ease of use.

Kennedy 1.0mm 2% Thoriated Red Tungsten Electrodes

2% thoriated tungsten electrodes (AWS classification EWTh-2) contain a minimum of 97.30% tungsten and 1.70 to 2.20% thorium. They are the most commonly used electrodes today and are preferred for their longevity and ease of use. Thorium increases the electron emission qualities of the electrode, which improves arc starts and allows for a higher current carrying capacity. This electrode operates far below its melting temperature, which results in a considerably lower rate of consumption and eliminates arc wandering for greater stability. It also features a lower level of weld contamination than other electrodes. Unlike pure tungsten, these electrodes are only for specialty type AC welding (thin gauge aluminum or materials less than .060-in.), but they are exceptional for DC electrode negative or straight polarity on carbon and stainless steel, nickel and titanium applications.
During manufacturing, thorium is evenly dispersed throughout the electrode. This evenness allows the electrode to maintain a sharpened edge, the ideal electrode shape for welding thin steel. Sharpening the electrode point, however, should be done with great care. Thorium is radioactive; therefore, you must always follow manufactures warnings, instructions and the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for its use.

Aluminium Tig/Gas Welding Rods

Low carbon austenitic filler rod for welding steels of similar composition (19% Cr, 12% Ni, 3% Mo). Use with argon shielding gas or argon/5% hydrogen.
