Product Description
Arcair, the pioneer of the air carbon-arc process and the industry leader for six decades, presents this top - notch copper - clad gouging electrode. Its high - grade, all - purpose design combines proven technology with improved features. The controlled copper coating boosts electrical conductivity, ensuring efficient and cooler operation, and maintains the electrode diameter at the arc point. Ideal for fabrication, maintenance, repair shops, and shipyards. It uses DC (Direct Current) with DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive) reverse polarity. The electrode size is 5/16' x 12' (7.9mm x 30.5cm) and has an amperage capacity of 350 - 450 amps. Each carton contains 50 pieces.
Using these Arcair gouging rods is easy. First, make sure your power source is set to DC with DCEP reverse polarity. Then, connect the rod to your equipment. Adjust the amperage between 350 - 450 amps according to your needs. When using, keep a steady hand to ensure a smooth gouging process. Remember, these rods are great for fabrication, maintenance, and repair work in shops and shipyards. For safety, always wear proper protective gear like goggles and gloves. After use, store the rods in a dry place to prevent damage. If the rods get wet, let them dry thoroughly before using again. This will help maintain their performance and extend their lifespan.
