    Regular power (RP)graphite electrodes are made of high-quality petroleum coke, coal tar pitch and other raw materials, through calcining, crushing, screening, dosing, kneading, forming, baking, graphitization, machining, etc.

    Regular power (RP)graphite electrodes are made of high-quality petroleum coke, coal tar pitch and other raw materials, through calcining, crushing, screening, dosing, kneading, forming, baking, graphitization, machining, etc. Good thermal conductivity, high mechanical strength, and strong resistance to oxidation and corrosion at high temperatures. It is widely used in electric arc furnaces and ladle refining furnaces to smelt various alloy steels, yellow phosphorus, industrial silicon, brown corundum, and other alloys and non-metal materials.

  • The packing is made of wood and plywood with strip steel outside and plastic outside. The solid wood slat is used to protect the graphite electrodes, the nipples and sockets are protected by foam hat first then by plywood outside, the plastic inside has effect of moisture proof and dust proof, with 6-8 steel strips outside, beautiful and firm which suitable for land and sea transportation.

  • 1. When selecting electrode diameter for steel making, please refer to electrode current capacity.

    2. Graphite electrodes should be protected from rain and snow during transportation and storage. Before use, they must be dried.

    3.Graphite electrodes should be handled with care during loading, unloading, and transportation to protect the threads and prevent  damage.

    4.Before connecting the electrode, the electrode socket thread must be blown out with compressed air, and then the nipples and the electrode should be tightened.

    5.The electrode lifting device of the electrode should not shake during operation to prevent the nipples from loosening and tripping.

    6.The electrode holder must not hold the electrode near the nipple socket.

    7.When charging the furnace, a large steel block should be placed at the lower part to prevent the material from collapsing and breaking the electrode during melting.
