Arcair 4304-9009 Exothermic Cutting Rods 3/8 X 36 in 25 Pack

Product Description

The ARCAIR 4304-9009 is an uncoated exothermic cutting rod designed for use with the ARCAIR SLICE cutting system. Each rod measures 3/8 inch in diameter and 36 inches in length. The patented single-piece construction maintains the structural balance required to sustain a continuous exothermic reaction during cutting operations. These rods are capable of cutting, burning, or piercing metallic, non-metallic, and composite materials. They are handled and installed by welding professionals, industrial maintenance crews, and specialty cutting contractors who require reliable performance across diverse material types.

These rods are suited for industrial cutting applications where conventional thermal cutting methods fall short. The SLICE system excels in scenarios involving mixed or unknown material compositions, such as demolition work, salvage operations, underwater cutting, and emergency rescue situations. The uncoated design of the 4304-9009 rods is appropriate for applications and environments where a flux coating is not required or preferred by the operator.

Key Features

• Uncoated rod construction for applications where flux coating is not needed
• 3/8 inch diameter by 36 inch length provides consistent reach and handling balance
• Patented single-piece rod design sustains exothermic reaction stability
• Capable of cutting metallic, non-metallic, and composite materials
• Sold in a 25-rod pack for job-site efficiency

Compatibility

Designed for use with the ARCAIR SLICE exothermic cutting system. Verify system and electrode holder compatibility before use.

Installation Notes

Exothermic cutting operations must be performed by trained personnel following applicable safety standards and site-specific hot-work permit requirements. Ensure the cutting area is clear of flammable materials and that appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection and heat-resistant gloves, is worn. Power down or de-energize any electrical equipment in the cutting zone prior to beginning work. Always follow the ARCAIR SLICE system operator manual for rod insertion, ignition, and shutdown procedures.
