OVERVIEW

Cut Anything, Anywhere, Anytime

When you are up against a job that defies conventional cutting tools, reach for Broco Slice Rods. This 25-pack of 3/16" x 18" rods gives you the power to slice through barriers that stop other torches cold. Whether you are dealing with a seized track pin on a bulldozer, cutting through reinforced concrete, or dismantling mixed-metal scrap, the Broco exothermic system delivers the heat you need instantly. Igniting with a simple 12-volt battery striker and fueled by oxygen, these rods burn hot enough to liquefy steel and rock.

Why Choose the 3/16" Size?
While larger rods are great for heavy severing, the 3/16-inch diameter offers a unique advantage: control. It allows for finer gouging and piercing, making it the perfect choice for surgical removal of parts without damaging the surrounding equipment. It consumes less oxygen than its larger counterparts, making your gas supply last longer in the field.

Unmatched Versatility
Broco Slice rods don't just cut metal; they cut everything. Use them to clear slag, remove hardfacing, cut bridge decking, or gain entry during emergency rescue situations. No pre-heating is required—just ignite and cut. This box of 25 rods ensures you have plenty of firepower on hand for your toughest projects. Add these to your welding arsenal and never say "I can't cut that" again.

FAQ

No, Broco Slice rods do not require a welding power source (amperage). They operate via an exothermic chemical reaction fueled by oxygen. You only need a 12V battery (like a car battery) to ignite the rod initially.

These rods require a supply of industrial oxygen. They do not use acetylene, propane, or other fuel gases.

Yes, the Broco Slice rods burn at over 10,000°F, which is hot enough to melt and cut through concrete, granite, and rock.

You need a Broco Slice torch or a compatible exothermic cutting torch that is equipped with a 3/16" collet to securely hold the rod.

Standard Broco Slice rods typically feature a flux coating to assist with the burn and prevent the rod from shorting out against the side of the cut, although the primary fuel is the internal wires.

This package contains 25 rods.

These are standard surface rods. For underwater applications, you should use Broco SofTouch rods which are specifically waterproofed and insulated for submerged use.

The 3/16" rod allows for more precise cuts, smaller kerf widths, and is better suited for delicate removal tasks or smaller workpieces compared to the heavy-duty 3/8" rods.
