Air Carbon Gouging Electrodes (or carbons)
are designed for cutting and gouging metals
such as carbon steel, stainless steel, copper,
aluminum, and some high temperature alloys.
The process is one in which an air-carbon arc
torch is used to create an electric arc which
melts away the metal, then uses compressed
air to “blow" the molten metal out of the
groove. Gouging carbons come in both
copper coated and plain, and are also
available jointed for continuous feeding
operations. The copper coating improves
conductivity offering more efficient and
cooler operation.
