Graphite Electrode Usage Instruction

1.You should remove the thread of the electrode before connecting the electrode. When the connector is carefully screwed into one end of the electrode, screw the lifting connector into the other end of the electrode. Do not hit the thread. It is not recommended to directly connect the connector to the electrode being used on the furnace. Graphite electrode should avoid the moisture, the dust, the contamination and collision.
