Thedifferent grades of graphite and electrodes of various sizes and formswill be shown, the latter containing practical working samples ofdifferent anodes and electrodes as used by the customers of thiscompany for electrolytic work. They illustrate the different methodsof machining and assembling the graphite into economical anodeforms. For electric furnace work, the electrodes can be joined to-gether end to end and fed into the furnace one after the other asconsumed without interruption of the furnace.
