Chromium
Chromium Alloys
The most important property of Chromium is that it improves corrosion and oxidation resistance in stainless steels. It can also improve the hardness of non stainless grades because of the formation of Chromium carbides. In a typical austenitic stainless...
Continue readingChromium Metal
Chromium is a hard silvery metal and used in the production of high temperature alloys and superalloys. The following regular grade of Aluminothermic Chromium Metal is available.
Continue readingHigh Purity Pig Iron
We supply a high purity pig iron containing very low concentrations of manganese, phosphorus, sulphur and other undesirable elements. Delivered either loose in bulk tipper truck or packaged in shrink-wrapped collared pallets.
Manganese
Manganese Alloys
Widely used as an alloying element with specific applications as a deoxidant and desulphuriser in the manufacture of steel. Manganese Sulphide and Manganese Oxide are plastic at the working temperature of steel, reducing the effect of tearing during rolling...

Ferro Phosphorous
Improves the machinability in free cutting steels, strengthens low Carbon steels and can assists corrosion resistance.
Continue readingFerro Sulphide
The production of free cutting steels using ferrous sulphide provides a cost effective solution in adding Sulphur. The Sulphur combines with the Manganese to form Manganese Sulphide inclusions which act as a lubricant reduces tool wear and machining loads....

Ferro Boron
Boron is normally added to steel in the form of Ferro Boron. Its main effect is to increase hardenability of the steel. It can also be used to partly replace other alloying elements e.g. Cr, Ni and Mo in certain alloy steels.
Continue readingFerro Molybdenum
Molybdenum is normally mined as Molybdenite and processed by roasting to Molybdenum Oxide. It is used in this form or by downstream processing to Ferro Molybdenum. The main application in iron and steel is to maintain high strength at elevated temperatures. ...
Continue readingFerro Niobium
Ferro Niobium is used predominately in microalloyed steels to increase strength and toughness.
Continue readingFerro Titanium
Titanium is a highly reactive metal which at steel making temperatures forms stable compounds with oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and sulphur. This "fixing" effect along with its potential to grain refine is very important in the production of certain steels...
Continue readingFerro Tungsten
Ferro Tungsten is used mainly in the production of tool , die and high speed steels.
Continue readingFerro Vanadium
FERRO VANADIUM Ferro Vanadium is added in small quantities to microalloyed steels to increase strength. In larger quantities it is added to increase strength and heat resistance in tool steels. Normal grade is 80% Vanadium and is available in a...

Bismuth
Bismuth can be added to Ductile iron to increase nodule count, improve nodule distribution and eliminate carbides.
Continue readingChromium Metal
Chromium is a hard silvery metal and used in the production of high temperature alloys and superalloys. The following regular grade of Aluminothermic Chromium Metal is available.
Continue readingCobalt
Cobalt is a hard grade lustrous metal which is commonly used in the production of magnets, certain stainless steels and catalysts.
Continue readingMagnesium
Magnesium is a silvery white lustrous metal. Common uses are for alloying Aluminum, desulphurisation of Iron and Steel and production of light castings.
Continue readingNickel
Nickel is a hard silvery metal normally sold in the form of Nickel cathode. Its main application is in the production of stainless steel . Other uses are Nickel alloys, plating & batteries.
Continue readingSilicon Metal
Silicon Metal is widely used in aluminium alloys to improve castability. In addition, it combines with other elements to improve the alloy's strength and to enable heat treatment.
Continue readingSilicon
Ferro Silicon
Silicon is present in most steels up to around 0.35% for the deoxidation process. However, higher additions between 1% and 2% are used in production of spring steels. Transformer cores also utilise higher levels of silicon in conjunction with low carbon...
Continue readingFerro Silicon Zirconium
Zirconium is a highly reactive element and forms stable compounds with oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur and carbon. It can be used as a de-oxidant, to modify non-metallic inclusions and to fix uncombined nitrogen particularly in boron steels. Other sizes...
