ELECTRO CARB EC-17C

Graphite Blanks

Recommended Usage:

EC-17C is a high density premium copper impregnated graphite which possesses the highest quality characteristics of MWI grades. EC-17C is technically superior due to the line micro grain strength and durability. The high density of EC-17C allows for the best Wire EDM cutting action combined with better flushing capabilities. EC-17C is the strongest material recommended for EDMing intricate detail and thin ribs. In addition, EC-17C is the best choice for EDMing carbide and other exotic material. EC-17C will produce the finest super finish and will perform with the least amount of electrode wear. Precision, accuracy, and quality are guaranteed when EC-17C is used.
