Measuring 0.25 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length, this round rod is constructed from a combination of carbon steel, stainless steel, and copper materials. The copper coating supports consistent arc transfer and heat conductivity during the gouging process. This electrode is sold in a package of 10 and is a standard consumable for welders, fabricators, and metalworkers performing structural prep, weld joint cleaning, or defect removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArc gouging electrodes are used in industrial and construction fabrication environments where material needs to be rapidly removed or grooved before welding or repair. The 59804096 is suited for use with carbon arc gouging torch setups powered by DC welding power sources. Typical applications include back-gouging weld joints, removing defective weld metal, and cutting or shaping ferrous and non-ferrous base materials. A package quantity of 10 electrodes supports routine shop or field use without requiring bulk ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound rod profile at 0.25 inches diameter for standard gouging torch compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 inches electrode length for extended reach and burn time per rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel, stainless steel, and copper construction supports arc stability and heat transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage quantity of 10 electrodes per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 23271800 for procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement consumable for use with standard carbon arc gouging torches and DC-output welding power sources compatible with 0.25-inch diameter gouging electrodes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eArc gouging electrodes are installed and operated by trained welders or fabricators following applicable AWS safety standards. Before use, confirm the welding power source is set to the correct polarity and amperage range for the electrode diameter. Always wear appropriate PPE including a welding helmet with the correct lens shade, hearing protection, and flame-resistant clothing, as the arc gouging process generates significant heat, noise, and molten metal spray. Work in a well-ventilated area and keep flammable materials clear of the work zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.46 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23271800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WELDERS CHOICE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 59804096\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WELDER'S CHOICE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909772673330,"sku":"59804096","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b6e886be683d494f9d920cb7429d086b.jpg?v=1791192021","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/welders-choice-59804096-arc-gouging-electrode-10-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
