Carbon Cored Wire - Best Carbon Additve Cored Wire
Carbon cored wire is a specialized product formed using raw materials such as graphite, calcined coal, petroleum coke, and carbon powder as the core. It is created by pressing low-carbon steel strips through a wire drawing machine, resulting in a type of carbon additive cored wire. Given its rich carbon content, it is often referred to as “C CW.” This wire is extensively used in steelmaking and casting, effectively adjusting the carbon content in steel and playing a crucial role in improving the distribution of graphite during casting processes.

Applications of Carbon Cored Wire
-
Steelmaking: Carbon cored wire plays a vital role in adjusting the carbon content in steel, allowing for optimized mechanical properties such as hardness and toughness. It is essential in the smelting of low-carbon steel and carbon steel.
-
Casting: During the production of graphite castings, carbon cored wire effectively improves the distribution of graphite from A to B. It also enhances the nucleation effect in castings, significantly improving their internal structure and overall quality.
Advantages of Carbon Cored Wire
- Uniform distribution of powder core
- High absorption rate
- Reduction of other gases and impurities
- Simple to use
- Convenient storage
- Increases yield while reducing production costs
Why Use Carbon Cored Wire?
In the production of certain specialty steels, adjusting carbon content is necessary. Directly adding solid carbon materials to molten steel can introduce impurities and additional gases, contaminating the steel. Carbon cored wire allows precise delivery of carbon materials to the desired depth in the molten steel, significantly minimizing the introduction of impurities and gases, thereby enhancing the purity and quality of the steel. Similarly, during casting, adjusting the carbon content in castings is crucial for improving machining performance and hardness. Carbon cored wire effectively enhances the distribution of graphite in graphite castings, increasing yield and promoting graphitization, earning it the title of the “best carbon additive cored wire.”
Packaging of Carbon Cored Wire
- Packaged in plastic bags
- Reinforced with iron cages or wooden frames
