Tungsten Electrode Grinders
![]() |
The diamond grinding wheel on these grinders creates a fresh point on electrodes for frequent TIG welding. These electric grinders work more quickly and precisely than chemical sharpeners.
Battery Powered—Battery-powered grinders let you sharpen electrodes on the go and where it’s difficult to access an electrical outlet.
Adjustable Head—Adjustable-head grinders let you create a range of angles on your electrode.
Dust-Collecting Cylinder—Grinders with a dust-collecting cylinder prevent you from inhaling tungsten dust by keeping it contained.

Tungsten Electrode Stick-Out Gauges
![]() | ![]() |
1/16" Graduations |
Measure the distance your tungsten electrode sticks out from your nozzle for consistent TIG welding. To set the depth of these gauges, loosen the knurled locknut, then turn the threaded gauge rod. Tighten the locknut to lock these gauges into place. Once locked, insert your tungsten electrode into the opening to measure its stick-out. Tungsten electrode stick-out should not exceed the width of your nozzle.
