Graphite electrode

Category Graphite electrode


graphite electrode, Ultra-high Power (UHP), High Power (HP), Regular Power (RP)], Electric Arc Furna


Detail

Graphite electrode is employed to offer high level of electrical conductivity and the capability to sustain extremely high level of dissipated heat, therefore is widely used for EAF (electric arc furnace scrap melting) ,LF ( ladle furnace steel refining) and the equivalent smelting process, like silicon, ferro-alloy, white phosphorus/ yellow phosphorus and etc.

Product type: RP (Regular Power)

HP (High Power)

SHP (Super High Power)

UHP (Ultra High Power)

Common size range: 250/300/350/400/450/500/550/600/700
