OVERVIEW

High-Performance Metal Removal with Arcair CutSkill

The Arcair CutSkill 1/4-inch x 12-inch DC Pointed Copperclad Electrode is a premium consumable designed for the air carbon-arc gouging process. Manufactured by the industry leader in gouging technology, these electrodes are essential for fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and heavy industrial repair facilities. The 22043003C package contains 50 high-quality carbon rods, ensuring you have the supply needed for substantial metal removal tasks.

These electrodes are formulated from a precise blend of carbon and graphite, optimized to produce the most efficient metal removal performance available. The copper coating on each rod serves a dual purpose: it enhances electrical conductivity for a stable, intense arc, and it helps maintain a cooler operating temperature. This results in a cleaner groove and less heat input into the base metal, reducing the risk of distortion or metallurgical changes in the workpiece.

Ideal for a variety of applications, the Arcair CutSkill electrodes excel at creating U-grooves for weld joint preparation, removing old or defective welds, gouging out cracks, and cleaning castings. Their pointed design facilitates easy arc starting and allows for precise control over the gouging path. Whether you are performing rough machining or preparing a critical joint for re-welding, these electrodes provide the consistency and speed required for professional results.

Compatible with standard air carbon-arc torches, these 1/4-inch rods operate effectively within an amperage range of 300 to 400 Amps on DCEP polarity. By choosing Arcair CutSkill, you are investing in a product that delivers superior metal removal rates, helping to reduce labor time and improve overall project efficiency.

FAQ

The recommended amperage range is 300 to 400 Amps.

These electrodes are designed for Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP) operating polarity.

The box contains 50 electrodes.

Yes, they are Copperclad® to improve conductivity and arc stability.

No, these are DC specific electrodes. AC electrodes are typically not copper coated and contain rare earth materials for arc stabilization on alternating current.

They are used for air carbon-arc gouging (CAC-A) to remove metal, create grooves, or clean castings.

Each rod is 12 inches long.

Yes, the air carbon-arc process requires a supply of compressed air to blow away the molten metal created by the arc.
