Description
Top Features
- Premium synthetic graphite boosts electrode lifespan and maximizes metal removal.
- Full copper coating ensures stable arcs and less heat generation.
- A consistent melt - off rate creates smooth, even grooves.
- High - density formula makes the electrodes super durable.
Elite Performance
CarbonElite arc gouging carbon electrodes have a special composition for efficient metal removal. The copper - coated carbon provides great arc stability and less heat, controlling the melt - off rate. They come in pointed, jointed, flat, and hollow types for many semi - automatic or automatic uses.
Typical Applications
- Mainly for automatic gouging, but can also be used manually.
- Great for large, long - lasting gouges in shipbuilding or foundries.
- Perfect for circular gouges on pipes and tanks.
*All electrodes are 12' long, except the 1/2' electrode which is 14' long.

Using these Lincoln CarbonElite gouging electrodes is straightforward. First, choose the right electrode type (pointed, jointed, flat, or hollow) based on your application, like automatic gouging or circular gouges on pipes. For automatic applications, set up your equipment according to the standard procedures. If you're using them manually, hold the electrode steadily and start the arc. Remember, these electrodes work best with a stable power supply to maintain the arc. When it comes to safety, always wear proper protective gear such as gloves and goggles to avoid any potential injuries from sparks or heat. As for maintenance, keep the electrodes in a dry place to prevent any damage to the copper coating. This will ensure their long - term performance and durability. Don't forget to check the electrode length; all are 12' long except the 1/2' one which is 14' long. This will help you plan your work more effectively.
