    Electrodes made of stainless steel or non-ferrous metals should be baked at 120-250°C for at least 2 hours before use. They can then be stored in ovens at 120°C or higher until needed, and removed for up to 4 hours in open air or 8 hours in heated portable containers at 65°C or above. Electrodes exposed to air for less than the maximum time should be returned to storage ovens, and can only be re-dried once if exposed to air again.
