PRECISION GRAPHITE ELECTRODES φ50-200mm
For small-to-medium EAF, SAF, ladle refining, and taphole opening applications.
Engineered for small-to-medium electric arc furnaces, ferroalloy submerged arc furnaces, ladle refining lines, and selected taphole opening applications. For φ50-200mm orders, JY Carbon controls raw material selection, formulation, kneading, forming, batch inspection, and drawing-based fit checks before shipment.

Engineered for Small-to-Medium Furnace Applications
The φ50–200mm range is selected by furnace type, operating current, grade requirement, nipple design, and inspection record. Final application fit should be confirmed against the agreed drawing and product grade.
Electric Arc Furnace — Small & Mid-Scale
For small and mid-scale EAF operations where diameter, grade, resistivity range, and nipple fit need to match operating current and furnace practice.
Specialty Alloy & High-Purity Smelting
For specialty alloy smelting where ash content, resistivity, and batch consistency should be agreed before order confirmation and checked by shipment records.
Precision Foundry & Ladle Furnace Use
For compact foundry and ladle refining operations where small-diameter electrodes require stable dimensions, grade selection, and connection checks.
Taphole Opening Electrode — SAF
For selected SAF taphole opening applications in calcium carbide or industrial silicon operations. Diameter, grade, and use conditions should be confirmed before quotation.
KEY CHECKS FOR φ50-200mm ELECTRODES
For small-diameter graphite electrodes, machining fit, strength, and electrical consistency should be checked together before release.
Drawing-confirmed value
End-Face Flatness
End-face flatness is checked against the confirmed drawing to support face contact and reduce assembly mismatch risk.
Drawing-confirmed value
Nipple-Fit Tolerance
Nipple-fit tolerance is reviewed against the current drawing to support thread matching and stable assembly.
Specification-confirmed value
Flexural Strength
Flexural strength is checked by grade to assess handling resistance and furnace suitability before shipment.

MACHINING CONTROL & BATCH RELEASE
Machining Control
Batch Release Checks
Release decision is based on the agreed grade, drawing, and inspection record.
SIZE RANGE BY APPLICATION
Choose the diameter range according to furnace size, current demand, connection design, and operating practice.
50-100mm
100-150mm
CONNECTION CONTROL NOTES
Connection performance depends on thread accuracy, fit review, and correct installation practice for the selected nipple and electrode size.
Machining & Fit Checks
- Nipple material and grade matched to the confirmed electrode order.
- Tolerance reviewed against the current drawing.
- Thread quality checked before packing.
- Contact surfaces visually inspected before release.
- Storage protection confirmed when anti-oxidation coating is requested.
Installation & Use Notes
- Use the matched nipple type and size for the selected electrode.
- Follow the agreed tightening and handling practice during assembly.
- Check connection surfaces for handling damage before use.
- Keep electrodes and nipples dry during storage and installation.
- Request the latest drawing or technical note if your furnace setup differs from the standard range.
