Foundry Pig Iron is suitable for iron castings used in general engineering, machine tools and parts for the automotive industry. Due to the high proportion of iron ore used in the production of Foundry Pig Iron, the formation of pearlite in the finished casting is promoted. This effect is enhanced when more than 10% of Pig Iron per charge is used. The use of Foundry Pig Iron promotes graphite formation, reduces primary chill and improves machinability, particularly important in thin-walled castings The use of costly chill reducing inoculants can be minimised through increased addi- tions of Foundry Pig Iron. The high density and high carbon content of Foundry Pig Iron improves melting rates or reduces energy consumption. In an electric induction furnace savings can be as high as 50 kWh/t of molten metal. In a cupola furnace savings of up to 50 kg coke/t of molten metal can be achieved. The higher bulk density of pig iron relative to scrap means lower storage space re- quirements, less handling during charge make-up, fewer charge buckets and lower charging time. â?¢ The lower surface area : volume ratio relative to scrap means lower oxide (rust) for- mation and thus lower slag volume. The carbon content is chemically combined and thus goes into solution more quickly with lower energy requirement than when adding a recarburiser to scrap

Pig Iron for sale at high quantities from India. Payment Term - LC For price and specification. This Pig Iron slag is a by-product derived from the production of thermal insulating products. The byproduct is a ferrous slag which can be utilised in an electric arc furnace to produce crude steel. Physical Description On visual inspection, it appears to be made up of irregular shapes. Dimension: 300mm -1000mm Chemical Composition Its chemical composition is homogeneous and stable with Fe contents in the range of 85 +/- 5% and P contents < 0.8% S around 0.15% and C% around 3.5%. Packing: Loose in container Loading: in 20 Container.
Pig iron, also known as crude iron, is an intermediate product of the iron industry in the production of steel which is obtained by smelting iron ore in a blast furnace. When the metal had cooled and hardened, the smaller ingots (the "pigs") were simply broken from the runner (the "sow"), hence the name "pig iron".
