Graphite Electrodes
Graphite electrodes enable the melting of the metal charge in electric arc furnaces by converting electrical energy into heat through the arc.
It is produced by subjecting raw materials such as petroleum, pitch, and coal tar pitch to the processes of calcination, shaping, baking, graphitization, and precision machining. It offers low electrical resistance, high conductivity, and high-temperature resistance.
KEY FEATURES
- Low electrical resistivity
