Abstract

PURPOSE:To extend the service life of the electrode tip by constituting the electrode tip of a ceramics sintered body having specific material quality. CONSTITUTION:The part of the electrode tip in contact with a material to be welded is constituted of the ceramics sintered body of a chromium carbide and/or zirconium boride base. The crack of the electrode tip arising from the deficiency in the compactness of the film and (thermal) impact resistance, etc., by a thermal spraying film forming method is prevented in this way.
