DIN EN 60239:2006-03

This International Standard specifies the dimensions of turned and threaded cylindrical graphite arc furnace electrodes and graphite electrode pins for use as full graphite electrode columns on arc furnaces. This standard covers the dimensions and tolerances on length and diameter of electrodes; the dimensions, tolerances and thread details for electrode sockets and pins of tapered shape, used with the electrodes. The standardization of the above dimensional features is essential for the interchangeability of electrodes from different sources, and is a minimum standard.
