Graphite electrode UHP

UHP graphite electrodes are used for steel recycling in the electric arc furnace industry. Its main ingredient is high-value needle coke, which is made from petroleum or coal tar. Graphite electrodes are machined in a cylindrical shape with threaded areas on each end. In this way, graphite electrodes can be assembled into electrode columns using electrode joints.

In order to meet the requirements of higher operating efficiency and lower total cost, large-capacity ultra-high-power electric arc furnaces are becoming more and more popular. Therefore, UHP graphite electrodes with a diameter of more than 500 mm will dominate the market.
