Graphite Electrode

Introduction:

Graphite electrode is the conducting element for electric arc furnaces steel making. It is made of petroleum coke, needle coke,coal pitch and produced by a series of strict production processes. High-current lines insert through the graphite electrode port inside the furnace body. This will releases electric energy in the arc furnace to heat the furnace.
