Vibrant TIG Wire Titanium - 0.035in. Thick (1.0mm) - 1 Meter Long Rod - 1 lb box
Vibrant Performance titanium filler rods deliver clean, strong welds for custom titanium exhaust fabrication and repairs on high-performance vehicles like 2015-2021 Subaru WRX and STI models. Each 1 lb box contains approximately 125 rods, 1 meter in length, for precise TIG welding of lightweight, heat-resistant components. These rods produce corrosion-resistant joints that maintain structural integrity under extreme racing conditions.
Key Features
- 0.035in (1.0mm) Diameter: Matches thin titanium sheet metal used in performance exhausts for narrow, controlled weld beads without burn-through.
- 1 Meter Rod Length: Provides optimal handling during TIG welding to reduce waste and improve control in tight fabrication spaces.
- 1 lb Box (~125 Rods): Convenient quantity for multiple projects or repairs, ensuring consistent supply without frequent reordering.
- High Purity Titanium: 99.9% commercially pure Grade 2 titanium yields ductile, high-strength welds with natural oxide color and superior fatigue resistance.
- High-Temperature Performance: Retains strength over 1600°F, ideal for turbocharged exhaust manifolds and mufflers in forced-induction setups.
Product Notes
- Store in a clean, dry environment to avoid surface contamination before use.
- Requires meticulous surface preparation with acetone or alcohol for oxide-free welds.
- Packaged in protective box to shield rods from moisture and handling damage during transit.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Use 100% argon with back purging and trailing shield to prevent atmospheric contamination.
- Compatible with AC/DC TIG welders set to ~80-120 amps depending on joint thickness.
