50pc 3/8″ Standard Round DC Carbon Gouging Rods

The Platinum WC-00251 50pc 3/8″ Standard Round DC Carbon Gouging Rods are engineered for efficient and reliable air-arc gouging and cutting on various steels. With a larger 3/8″ diameter, these electrodes are part of the trusted Standard Round DC series and are perfect for high-pressure, heavy-duty applications. Designed to work with DC welding power sources, they require an air-arc gouging torch and compressed air to efficiently remove molten material. These rods are built for professionals who need deeper, cleaner grooves in demanding industrial settings.

Platinum WC-00251 50pc 3/8″ Standard Round DC Carbon Gouging Rods Features

  • Copper coating for enhanced conductivity: Reduces heat generation and increases gouging efficiency for smoother performance.
  • 95% graphite composition: Ensures durability and reliable performance under heavy-duty conditions.
  • 3/8″ diameter: Well-suited for larger-scale projects requiring deeper grooves and more material removal.
