In the world of secondary metallurgy, precision and efficiency are crucial. Calcium Silicon (CaSi) cored wire has transformed how modern steelmakers approach ladle furnace treatment. This innovative composite material features carefully calibrated calcium-silicon alloy powder enclosed in a thin, cold-rolled steel sheath. It enables direct, controlled injection of reactive calcium deep into the molten steel bath, ensuring optimal interaction with oxygen and sulfur while minimizing waste through oxidation or vaporization.
| Parameter Core Composition | Typical Specification Importance in Steel Refining | |
| Calcium:28-33%; Silicon:55-65% | Provides the necessary chemical agents for deoxidation, desulfurization and most critically, inclusion modification. | |
| 0.25-0.40 mm | Offers optimal protection for the reactive core against moisture and air, while maintaining flexibility for smooth feeding through automated systems. | |
Standard Caters to different treatment intensities and ladle sizes; custom diameters9 mm,13 mm,16mm Diameters are available for specialized applications. | ||
| Powder Density | Guarantees uniform and predictable release of calcium during the wire feeding process, leading to consistent treatment results. | |
Our CaSi cored wire is manufactured to meet strict specifications, delivering consistent performance and measurable metallurgical benefits:
Improved Inclusion Modification: Achieve 40–60% better efficiency compared to traditional powder injection methods. Abrasive alumina (Al₂O₃) inclusions are transformed into soft, globular calcium aluminates that enhance machinability and final product quality.
Higher Calcium Yield: With 18–25% of added calcium retained in the steel—significantly more than the 8–15% from conventional methods—our cored wire ensures effective treatment with less material.
Reduced Consumption: Modern facilities use only 0.8–1.2 kg of CaSi cored wire per ton of steel, compared to 1.5–2.0 kg/ton required by older technologies.
At Anyang Hongshun, we combine full automation with rigorous quality control. Our production lines monitor thirteen key parameters in real time to guarantee every meter of wire meets the highest standards. Each coil is individually tested for:
Tensile strength (minimum 250 MPa)
Elongation characteristics
Powder retention to prevent leakage
Additionally, our proprietary coating technology offers superior corrosion resistance, extending the product’s shelf life to 18 months without performance loss—even in demanding storage conditions.
