0700009004 - ESAB G-Tech Tungsten Grinder Coolant Fluid 250ml

Essential Maintenance for Precision Tungsten Grinding

The ESAB G-Tech Grinder Fluid (0700009004) is a critical consumable designed specifically for the ESAB G-Tech Tungsten Grinder series. In the world of high-precision TIG welding, the quality of your tungsten electrode preparation can make or break a weld. This 250ml bottle of specialized grinding fluid is engineered to facilitate the wet grinding process, ensuring that your equipment operates at peak performance while delivering the sharpest, most consistent electrode points possible.

Advanced Cooling and Protection

Unlike dry grinding, which can generate excessive heat and micro-cracks in the tungsten tip, wet grinding with the G-Tech fluid keeps the electrode cool throughout the sharpening process. This thermal management is vital for maintaining the structural integrity of the tungsten, preventing splitting or splintering during arc initiation. Furthermore, the fluid acts as a lubricant for the diamond wheel, reducing friction and wear, which significantly extends the service life of your grinding consumables.

Safety and Environmental Control

One of the primary advantages of the ESAB G-Tech system is safety. Grinding tungsten electrodes—especially those containing thoria—produces fine dust that can be hazardous if inhaled. This grinding fluid captures dust particles instantly as they are generated, trapping them in the liquid reservoir rather than allowing them to become airborne. This feature helps workshops maintain compliance with health and safety regulations regarding air quality and hazardous material handling.

Corrosion Inhibition

Water alone is insufficient for wet grinding systems as it promotes rust and oxidation within the machine's grinding chamber. The ESAB G-Tech Grinder Fluid contains specialized rust inhibitors that protect the internal components of your grinder. Regular use of this fluid ensures that the collection tray, pump, and grinding fixtures remain free from corrosion, safeguarding your investment in high-quality workshop equipment.
