Calcium silicon cored wire is a product used in metallurgy. Wrap the alloy powder with a steel strip.
Calcium Silicon Cored Wire Uses
Calcium silicon cored wire is mainly used in steel making and casting. When used in steelmaking, it can purify the form of steel inclusions, improve the castability of molten steel, improve the performance of steel, and can significantly increase the yield of alloys, reduce alloy consumption, reduce steelmaking costs, and have significant economic benefits.
Other Alloy Cored Wire We Supplied
According to the difference of alloy powder, it can be divided into: silicon-calcium cored wire, silicon-manganese-calcium wire, silicon-calcium-barium wire, barium-aluminum wire, aluminum-calcium wire, calcium-iron wire, pure calcium wire, etc. The winding looks like a coil. It is different from the cored wire used in the textile industry.
Packaging of Calcium Silicon Cored Wire
Horizontal and vertical packaging. Packing with waterproof plastic bag in a steel cage.
Calcium Silicon Cored Wire Advantages
It is beneficial to adjust and control the content of easily oxidized elements and trace elements, and improve the alloy yield.
Reduce smelting costs, shorten smelting time, and precisely control ingredients.
Improve the quality of molten steel and improve the casting state.
The cold-rolled steel strip is coated with ferroalloy powder, which is firmly coated, has good toughness, and the powder core has a uniform and substantial density.
The composition of the molten steel can be fine-tuned and controlled by the wire feeding method, and the yield of the alloy is greatly improved.
The molten steel is treated by the wire feeding method, which has a stable reaction, avoids secondary oxidation, fast floating speed of inclusions, and uniform purification. the
The wire feeding method can avoid bringing gas into molten steel.
The wire feeding method has strong adaptability, less one-time investment, small occupied area and wide application range.
The wire feeding method has simple equipment, easy operation and no environmental pollution.
Our technicians explained the product specifications of our silicon-calcium cored wire to the customer in detail, and adjusted the process according to the customer’s requirements. A customer has placed an order for calcium silicon cored wire with us.

(3) International market price
This week, this week, the core-spun wire export market prices are running steadily. The export transaction price of calcium-silicon cored wire (ca30si60∮13mm) is US$1500-1600/ton, and that of calcium-silicon wire (ca28si55∮13mm) is US$1450-1550/ton; the bite type solid core pure calcium cored wire (ca98% min∮9mm) is USD 1500-1600/ton (FOB price, Tianjin Port).
(4) Start-up statistics
Among the 60 samples of core-spun wire production enterprises counted on this website, 51 enterprises started production this month, and the operating rate was 85%, which was the same as that of last month. It is estimated that the total output of cored wire in May will be about 22,350 tons, an increase of about 360 tons compared with the previous month.
Alloy cored wire market outlook
This week, the price of raw material cold-rolled strip consolidated upwards. Due to the small range, the price of cored wire was weak. From the perspective of other raw materials, the price of calcium metal and silicon-calcium alloy tended to be stable, and the price of calcium metal cored downstream The prices of wire and silicon-calcium cored wire remained stable, and the price of magnesium metal continued to fall. Downstream spheroidized cored wire companies were cautious in their offers, waiting for the price of raw materials to return to calm. Starting from the demand side, the bidding of steel enterprises has been carried out one after another, and the inventory consumption of most steel enterprises is slow, and the purchase volume is stable and weakening. It is expected that the core-spun wire market will run steadily with raw materials next week, and the range of consolidation will not be too large.
