Ferroalloys are essential steelmaking additives that deoxidise, desulphurise and alloy the steel. Understanding them helps you choose the right addition for each steel grade. BeLink Global supplies the full ferroalloy range.
Ferrosilicon (FeSi)
Ferrosilicon, with 65 to 75 percent silicon, is the strongest deoxidiser and a strength-raising agent.
Ferromanganese (FeMn)
Ferromanganese adds manganese for strength and hardness and neutralises sulphur; it is available in high-, medium- and low-carbon grades.
Silico-Manganese (SiMn)
Silico-manganese combines silicon and manganese in one addition and is the most widely used ferroalloy in carbon steel.
Ferrochrome (FeCr)
Ferrochrome is the primary source of chromium for stainless and alloy steel production.
