Engineering Utilities has introduced,
TIPWIZ, a compound that is claimed
to sharpen tungsten electrodes to a
far greater degree of accuracy than
grinding – the traditional means by
which welders sharpen tungsten
electrodes – or any other means of
sharpening, thereby allowing welders
to be more precise in their work.

Also, whereas the grinding of
tungsten electrodes on abrasive
wheels and discs causes dangerous
dust to be released into the air,
welders need only dip their electrodes
into the TIPWIZ, reducing risk to
both the operator and the
environment.
