43049007 - Arcair Slice 3/8 x 18 Uncoated Exothermic Cutting Rods (50-Pack)

Cut Through Anything with Arcair Slice

When you are out in the field and facing a material that your standard torch just won't cut, you need the Arcair Slice system. The Arcair 43049007 3/8" x 18" Uncoated Cutting Rods are the heavy-hitters of the maintenance and repair world. Sold in a convenient pack of 50, these rods are designed to burn through barriers that stop other tools in their tracks. Whether you are dealing with mud-caked bridge decking, rust-covered mining equipment, or composite materials in a demolition zone, these rods get the job done.

The beauty of the Slice system lies in its simplicity and power. These uncoated rods work on an exothermic principle: once you light them up, they stay lit as long as you feed them oxygen. You don't need to drag a heavy welding generator around to keep the arc going; you only need power to start the reaction. This makes them perfect for remote jobs or emergency fire and rescue situations where speed and portability are critical. The 18-inch length gives you plenty of reach and burn time, keeping your hands at a safe distance from the molten spray.

These "Plain" rods are stripped down for pure performance. They feature Arcair's patented single-piece construction which ensures the rod burns evenly and effectively. They are compatible with standard Arcair Slice torches and are a must-have for any welder or fabricator who deals with "impossible" cuts. From piercing a pin out of a crane boom to cutting through a concrete wall, keeping a box of these 43049007 rods on your truck ensures you are never stuck on a job site without a solution.
