Specification for graphite electrodes commonly used in steel works
In general, the graphite electrode used in steelmaking furnace is mostly made of ordinary power and high power graphite electrode. Now, the use of ultra high power graphite electrode increases year by year, accounting for almost half of the graphite electrode.
General specification for graphite electrode diameter Phi 300 Phi 500mm, Phi Phi 550 - the current usage of 800mm graphite electrodes is also great, the graphite electrode length was between 1600 and 2700mm.
The variety and specifications of graphite electrodes used in modern EAF steelmaking are mainly determined by the technical parameters of the steelmaking furnace. With the development of EAF steelmaking technology, the steel-making technology is developing towards large scale and ultra high power. The graphite electrode is mainly made of large size graphite electrode and ultra high power graphite electrode.
