Vulcan 700-GR is a gouging and chamfering electrode typically used on ferrous and non-ferrous metals for removing unwanted or defective weld metal, preparing parts prior to welding, or removing risers and reducing large areas of metal prior to machining. Can also be used for cutting frozen nuts and bolts.
700-GR is a highly efficient electrode that performs with all types of welding machines with sufficient capacity. The forceful arc blow is produced by the special coating which eliminates the need for compressed air or oxygen. It also has excellent restrike capability. The size and depth of the groove can easily be controlled.
Procedure:
Hold electrode at a low angle to the workpiece (10 to 15 degrees). Point the electrode in the direction of the desired groove, strike the arc and push the electrode as fast as the metal is removed. Maintain as short an arc as possible. The maximum depth of the groove in a single pass should not be greater than the diameter of the core wire. For deep grooves, use multiple passes.
