Re: My RSG design notes

Hi Dr R,

McMaster-Carr has three kinds of tungsten rods (larger than 3/16 electode type)
(The electrode stuff is pure Tg and Toriated tunsten but max diameter is 3/16)

Hi density tungsten:

Tg - 90%
Ni -  6%
Cu - 4%

Tungsten Carbide:

Tungsten Carbide with 10% Cobalt.


Do you know what the conductivities are for these alloys and how they compare to the Cobalt-Tungsten-Vanadium alloy?? Do you have a favorite choice from the first three??

I'm now stocking RSG electrodes in Cobalt-Tungsten-Vanadium alloy for various power level coils.

see attached notes.
