Petroleum Coke
Low-sulfur petroleum coke powders for charge carbon and carbon control in iron and steel.
Consistent Carbon, Clean Additions
Used as a carbon raiser and charge carbon, petroleum coke (petcoke) offers high fixed carbon with controlled sulfur and ash. We align grade, sizing, and packaging to your needs so you can hit targets without surprises.

Where Petroleum Coke Fits
Charge carbon and trim additions for foundries and steel shops
Petcoke is a practical carbon source for gray iron, ductile/CGI, and select steel practices. We align grade to your base iron and sulfur window, then size to your addition method—charge, trough, or ladle—so dissolution and handling are consistent. If you’re balancing multiple carbon sources, we can recommend a simple plan that meets targets without overshooting sulfur.
- Gray iron: charge carbon and trough/ladle additions
- Ductile/CGI: selected sulfur bands to support your sulfur window
- Steel: charge or ladle carbon per practice
- Blending strategies with natural/synthetic graphite on request
Grades and Sizing
Match sulfur band and particle size to your process
We supply common sulfur ranges from low to medium so you can choose what fits your chemistry and recovery needs. Standard mesh cuts support different addition points, helping you keep recovery predictable and melt corrections low. Tell us your furnace, addition point, and target window—we’ll recommend a grade and cut that work well together.
- Sulfur bands available from low to medium (ask for stocked bands)
- High fixed carbon with low volatile levels for clean recovery
- Standard cuts (e.g., 0–1 mm, 1–3 mm, 1–5 mm); custom sizing available
- Complete lot IDs and grade callouts on certification paperwork
Packaging and Delivery
Keep your melt deck moving
Choose packaging that fits your handling: paper bags, FIBCs, or bulk by arrangement. Palletized, labeled, and moisture-protected shipments help reduce rework and keep additions consistent from heat to heat. We can coordinate release schedules and inventory options so material is where you need it, ready when you need it.
- Paper bags and FIBCs or bulk options by arrangement
- Moisture-protected, palletized, and clearly labeled
- Release schedules and stocking options to match your production needs
Quality, Documentation, and Support
Straightforward specs, clear paperwork, and practical guidance
Each shipment is traceable by lot, with grade and sulfur band clearly identified. On request, we provide sulfur band confirmation, particle size distribution, moisture checks, and Certificates of Conformance (CofC), along with SDS. If you’re deciding between petcoke and other carbon sources, our team will outline a simple approach that meets your carbon target while respecting your sulfur and ash limits.
