Low Carbon Ferro Chrome

Low Carbon Ferro Chrome, known by the abbreviation LCFeCr, is part of the ferroalloy family and is formed by the combination of chromium and iron. This type of ferroalloy forms a high-chromium compound, mainly containing up to 70 percent chromium. The remaining elements of this mixture are small amounts of silica, carbon, phosphorus, and sulfur. In this composition, carbon, being a critical element, should be a maximum of about 0.3 percent.

Ferro Chrome has a gray and silver appearance and is generally granulated in lump or powdered form. This powdered ferroalloy is used in the manufacturing of welding electrodes. Some features of ferro chrome include enhancing resistance to corrosion and oxidation in the alloy. This material has hardening properties that enhance wear resistance. It also helps to maintain strength at high temperatures. Chromium is an irreplaceable element in all stainless steels and is used in the production of acid-resistant steels aside from making stainless steel.

Ferro Chrome increases the hardness of steel and enhances its resistance. This alloy is used in the production of loader and excavator teeth, as well as in crusher jaws. Generally, this alloy is utilized in the manufacturing of mining machinery operating in mines. Ferro Chrome enhances corrosion resistance, resulting in the cast part becoming abrasion-resistant. The carbon percentage determines the categorization of ferro chrome, with the low carbon type having a maximum of 0.3 percent. Overall, Low Carbon Ferro Chrome is used in productions where carbon presence in the structure would result in defects.
