D. C. Copper Coated Air Arc Gouging Carbon Electrodes
Air Carbon Arc Gouging Electrodes removes metal by utilizing the intense heat of the arc between the carbon-graphite electrode and the substrate to melt material that is subsequently removed from the work area by a jet of air. By controlling the angle of the electrode, the depth of the gouged area can also be controlled.
