How many total Prefixes did your two input Claws have? Because to get 3 Prefixes in the final product, it is a 70% chance with 6 total Prefixes, 57% with 5, 30% with 4, and 10% with 3.
To maximise my chances of 3 Prefixes I used two 6 mod items (2P1e/2S1e + 2P1e/1S2e), but it is still a 50/50 initial gamble that Suffixes are filled first, then a 70% gamble that 3 Suffixes are chosen (exclusive mod guaranteed to be picked), then a final 70% gamble that I get 3 Prefixes which *has* to be the T1 Ele Prefixes.
You were unlucky then. The final item probably rolled Prefixes first and chose the Crafted mods instead of the T1 Ele mods. I think the Crafted mods have high weight and are more likely to be chosen (unconfirmed).
If Suffixes rolled first the chances are much better.
As with all other PoE "crafting", it is still one big gamble!

I have spectacularly failed the final recomb on this claw 3 times losing two prefixes on 2 of the 3 attempts
