Its controlled copper coating improves electrical conductivity for more efficient cooler operation and helps maintain electrode diameter at the point of the arc.
Air arc gouging.
Carbon rods and plate.
Thus the open circuit voltage should be at least 60 volts.
For most applications cac a is used with dcep.
Molten metal is then removed by a blast of air it employs a consumable carbon or graphite electrode to melt the material which is then blown away by an air jet.
Air carbon arc gouging works as follows.
The arc voltage used in air carbon arc gouging and cutting ranges from a low of 35 to a high of 56 volts.
An electric arc is generated between the tip of a carbon electrode and the workpiece.
Arcair and slice products are synonymous with the air carbon arc gouging and exothermic cutting processes.
Air arc gouging torches are available in 600 1000 or 1200 amp options and we also stock gouging carbons in all diameters for every type of application.
A high grade all purpose copperclad pointed gouging electrode.
The intense electric arc used between the tip of a carbon electrode and a metal work piece cuts and melts the work piece.
Jointed gouging carbon electrodes box of 100 from 69 95.
Air carbon arc gouging is a process of removing metal by means of heat generated from a carbon arc.
Manual torches cables and holders.
Depending on the plasma system a number of different gases including air nitrogen oxygen an argon hydrogen mix and other combinations can be used when gouging with plasma arc.
Gouging carbon electrodes box of 100 from 9 97.
The metal becomes molten and a high velocity air jet streams down the electrode to blow it away thus leaving a clean groove.
Air carbon arc cutting also referred to as metal arc gouging and previously as air arc cutting is an arc cutting process where metal is cut and melted by the heat of a carbon arc.
Arcair professional angle arc k4000 90 1000 amp arc gouging torch with 7 cable 360 swivel and insulated hook up kit.
Underwater cutting gouging and welding.
The actual arc voltage is governed by arc length and the type of gouging.
Air arc gouging torch 600 amp.
The process uses a carbon graphite electrode compressed air and a standard power source.
Arcair invented arc gouging in 1949 and we ve been the leading name in metal.
