The graphite electrode is structurally composed of a graphite electrode body and a nipple. During the use of the graphite electrodes, the graphite electrode bodies are connected in series by nipples.
Graphite Electrode Nipple
Graphite Electrode Nipple Structure Introduction
The graphite electrode nipple is like a cone, for connecting the two electrode bodies. The graphite electrode nipple has screw threads and nipple pin.
- Screw Threads, matches the threads in the hole of the electrode body, both are on the same central axis, and get a good grip;
- Nipple Pin will flow out when heated, making the nipple and body connected more tightly.
Graphite Electrode Body
Graphite Electrode Body Structure Introduction
The Graphite Electrode Body is the main part of the graphite electrode and is the main conductor. From both ends, named as the end face, the screw thread in the graphite electrode hole, and the warning line.
- End Face should be flat, smooth, without holes, burrs;
- Screw Thread, taper deviation is small, the pitch is uniform, and deviation is small;
- Warning Line, the placement of the gripper, should be clearly marked.
