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...

High 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...

Miscellaneous

Ferro Phosphorous

Improves the machinability in free cutting steels, strengthens low Carbon steels and can assists corrosion resistance.

Continue reading

Ferro 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....

Noble Alloys

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.

Ferro 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.     ...

Ferro Niobium

Ferro Niobium is used predominately in microalloyed steels to increase strength and toughness.  

Continue reading

Ferro 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...

Cobalt

Cobalt is a hard grade lustrous metal which is commonly used in the production of magnets, certain stainless steels and catalysts.

Continue reading

Magnesium

Magnesium is a silvery white lustrous metal. Common uses are for alloying Aluminum, desulphurisation of Iron and Steel and production of light castings.

Continue reading

Nickel

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.

Silicon 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 reading

Silicon

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...

Ferro 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...
