Product Description
Only Arcair, the pioneer of the air carbon-arc process and the industry leader for six decades, offers this amazing blend of reliable technology and enhanced design. This is a high-quality, all-purpose copper-clad pointed gouging electrode. Its well - controlled copper coating boosts electrical conductivity, ensuring more efficient and cooler operation, and keeps the electrode diameter stable at the arc point. Applications include fabrication, maintenance, farms, and repair shops. It uses DC (Direct Current) with DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive - Reverse Polarity). The electrode size is 3/16' x 12' (4.8mm x 30.5cm), and it has an amperage capacity of 200 - 250 amps. Each carton contains 50 pieces.
Using these Arcair carbon arc gouging rods is easy. First, make sure your equipment is set to the right direct current (DC) with DCEP reverse polarity. Then, adjust the amperage to between 200 - 250 amps based on your needs. For best results, keep the electrode at a proper angle to the work surface. When using, wear appropriate safety gear like goggles and gloves to protect yourself from sparks. As for maintenance, store the rods in a dry place to prevent the copper coating from getting damaged. If you notice any issues with the electrical conductivity or the rod's shape, it might be time to replace it.
