Description
The TTG Plus cuts, grinds, and faces tungsten electrodes used in the TIG (GTAW) welding process. Additional fea-
tures and benefits of this unit are:
•
Electrodes are sharpened to conform to recognized standards.
•
The replaceable grinding wheel is diamond-coated on both sides.
•
The grinding wheel has an offset edge for easy cutting − an industry exclusive!
•
The head assembly allows for different electrode angles and diameters.
•
The unit can be hand operated, or bench-mounted using the supplied mounting bracket.
Grinding the tungsten electrode produces dust and flying sparks which can cause injury and start fires. Use local exhaust (forced
ventilation) at the grinder or wear an approved respirator.
Read MSDS for safety information. Consider using tungsten containing ceria, lanthana, or yttria instead of thoria. Grinding dust from
thoriated electrodes contains low-level radioactive material. Properly dispose of grinder dust in an environmentally safe way. Wear
proper face, hand, and body protection. Keep flammables away.
