Fangda Graphite Electrodes are high-performance carbon electrodes produced by Fangda Carbon New Material Co., Ltd., one of China’s largest and most respected manufacturers of graphite materials. Designed for demanding applications such as electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking, ladle furnace refining, and ferroalloy production, Fangda electrodes are available in RP (Regular Power), HP (High Power), and UHP (Ultra High Power) grades.
Manufactured using premium needle coke (for UHP) or petroleum coke (for RP/HP), and processed through advanced impregnation, baking, and high-temperature graphitization, Fangda electrodes deliver outstanding conductivity, thermal resistance, and structural integrity, making them a trusted choice worldwide.
Key Features:
-
Excellent Electrical Conductivity – Low resistivity for efficient energy use in EAFs
-
Superior Thermal Shock Resistance – Withstands extreme temperatures and rapid heating cycles
-
High Mechanical Strength – Reduces breakage and electrode consumption in high-load operations
-
Low Ash Content – Minimizes contamination of molten metal
-
Reliable Quality Control – Complies with GB/T, IEC, and ASTM standards; ISO 9001 certified
