Arcair's reputation for excellence in air carbon arc gouging is fully realized in their 1" x 17" Jointed DCCC Carbons (SKU: 24164003C). These electrodes are the workhorses of the heavy metal industry, designed to cut, gouge, and bevel metals with speed and precision. The "DCCC" designation indicates a high-density carbon-graphite formulation coated in copper, optimized for Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP) polarity. This composition ensures a stable arc and smooth groove geometry.
The jointed configuration of these rods is a game-changer for high-volume operations. Instead of discarding the remaining stub of a consumed rod, the operator simply mates a new rod to the end of the current one. This seamless transition allows for uninterrupted gouging passes, which is essential when working on long seams or large surface areas. The precise machining of the joints ensures a solid electrical and mechanical connection, preventing overheating at the junction.
Packaged in boxes of 25, these 1-inch diameter rods are substantial consumables meant for heavy-duty torches and power sources with significant output capacity. They are particularly effective on carbon steel, stainless steel, and other alloys commonly processed in heavy industry. By choosing Arcair jointed carbons, you are investing in reduced material waste and increased operational throughput.
