Washington alloy copper-coated arc gouging carbons have a special balance of carbon and graphite covered with a thin high-purity copper coating. High density, uniform properties and dimensions produce excellent arc stability and slag-free gouges

• 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 used compressed air to "blow" the molten metal out of the groove
• Having a special balance of carbon and graphite covered with a thin high purity copper coating
• High density, uniform properties and dimensions produce excellent arc stability and slag free gouges
• 0.0005 ohm/Inch electrical resistance
• Specific gravity: 1.7 (apparent)
• 4.4 oz/Inch metal removal
• 2.7 Inch/min consumption rate
• 1/2 Inch width x 11/32 Inch depth groove
• 5500 lb/sq.in. breaking strength
