Materials for the Mill & Foundry
Charge, Trim & Injection Carbon Solutions
We supply a variety of American-made graphite and carbon products for furnace charge, trim, and injection applications. Our product offerings consist primarily of crystalline synthetic graphite and baked carbon with high carbon values and consistent chemistry. Materials are available in a range of particle-size distributions to meet your specifications. Products are available in multiple packaging configurations to accommodate different foundry and mill requirements.
Metal Cover
Graphite & Proprietary
Our graphite and proprietary metal covers are commonly used in the production of certain brass and copper alloys to help reduce heat loss and oxidation. The granules or fine powder form a layer across the surface of the molten metal, helping prevent oxygen from reaching it. We can supply graphite metal cover materials in 25 lb, 40 lb, 44.1 lb (20kg), and 50 lb bags.
Charcoal
Our charcoal metal covers are used on the surface of molten metal to help reduce heat loss and prevent oxidation. Additionally, as the charcoal burns, it can help remove unwanted impurities from the molten metal and support cleaner, higher-purity metal production. We typically supply charcoal in 20 lb bags, but by request can source 33 lb bags.
Expandable Graphite
Expandable graphite is a specially treated graphite material that expands significantly when exposed to higher temperatures. It is commonly used in flame-retardant and fire-resistant products, intumescent coatings, and other high temperature industrial applications. We supply this in different purities and particle sizes to meet specific application requirements.
