Value Brand Gouging Carbon Electrode 5/16" Dia. Pk10

SKU CH-K9HT-GAMNQ

Pack of ten copper-coated carbon steel electrodes, 5/16 inch diameter and 12 inches long, rated for 350 A air carbon arc gouging

  • TypeWelding Supplies
  • Pack of 10 electrodes ready for immediate use
  • 12-inch length gives extended reach during gouging
  • Copper-coated carbon steel resists wear at high current
  • Rated for 350 amps DCEP air carbon arc cutting
  • Pointed tip shape focuses arc for precise material removal

Gouging Carbon Electrode 5/16" Pack of 10

This pack contains ten carbon electrodes designed for air carbon arc cutting and gouging processes. Each electrode measures twelve inches in overall length with a five-sixteenths inch outside diameter. The copper coating enhances electrical conductivity during operation. They are rated for a maximum current of three hundred fifty amperes using DCEP polarity.

Replaces Worn Electrodes in Air Carbon Arc Work

These electrodes serve as direct replacements for consumed gouging carbons in the same diameter and length class. The jump to a fresh pack is warranted when existing electrodes have worn below effective length or the copper coating has degraded enough to affect arc stability. They suit workshops that run frequent gouging tasks and need consistent ignition.

Fits Standard Air Carbon Arc Torches

The pointed electrodes fit torches that accept five-sixteenths inch diameter carbons for gouging and cutting applications. A compressed air supply and a power source capable of delivering up to three hundred fifty amps at DCEP are required to operate them. The copper finish helps maintain steady current transfer through the holder.

Questions about this item

What size holder does the 5/16 inch diameter electrode require?

Use a holder that accepts a 5/16 inch shank to match the electrode diameter.

How do I connect the electrode for air carbon arc gouging?

Connect the electrode holder to the positive DCEP terminal and ensure compressed air is supplied to the torch.

When should I replace a used gouging electrode?

Replace the electrode once the 12 inch length is consumed down to the holder or the copper coating wears off.
