E. Dross

Generally when dross is present on carbon steel, it is re-
ferred to as either "high speed or slow speed dross".

"High speed dross" usually forms a narrow bead along
the bottom of the cut edge and is very difficult to remove.
"Slow speed dross" will be in larger quantities but does
not adhere tightly to the cut edge and can be easily re-
moved.

When cutting a troublesome steel, it is suggested that the
torch travel speed be reduced to produce "slow speed
dross". Any required cleanup can then be done by scrap-
ping, not grinding.

Dross present on top of the plate (top spatter), is normally
caused by a slow torch travel speed or too high of a torch
standoff distance.
