I'm not familiar with that SCR but in general an SCR isbetter for staccato than a TRIAC. Mostly any largeSCR should work, and even a smaller one. It doesn'treally get subjected to much voltage in the circuit.

I will buy a Triac if I need to but, will this SCR work? I can’t find any info on it but, it seems to be pretty heavy duty. It reads GE 7-5804 8139.
