Low Carbon Ferro Chrome


Low Carbon Ferro Chrome (LC FeCr) is a ferroalloy designed to supply chromium in steelmaking without adding significant carbon. It is used for stainless steels and high-performance alloys where tight control over carbon content is essential.

Specifications:
• Chromium (Cr): ~60-65% minimum
• Carbon (C): ≤ 0.5% (or lower depending on grade)
• Silicon (Si): ≤ 1.5%
• Titanium (Ti), Phosphorus (P), Sulfur (S): kept minimal per alloy grades

  • Description
  • Additional Information
  • Applications

Low Carbon Ferro Chrome is produced via controlled processes that limit carbon pick-up, ensuring the alloy contributes chromium without significantly increasing carbon in the steel melt. This makes it ideal for alloying in stainless and specialty steels.

  • Supplies chromium while minimizing carbon addition

  • Helps achieve strict carbon limits in steel grades

  • Adds corrosion resistance and alloying strength

  • Suitable for precision stainless and high-alloy applications
