High carbon ferrochrome (HC FeCr) is the primary chromium carrier for stainless and chromium-alloy steelmaking. It introduces Cr ≥ 60% (typically 60-65%) into the melt at lower cost than refined grades, with carbon at C ≤ 8.0% acting as a built-in reductant that supports recovery in EAF and converter practice. Chromium raises corrosion resistance, hardenability and high-temperature strength; carbon is later trimmed by AOD/VOD decarburization, so HC FeCr fits the bulk-Cr stage of the route. Foundries and mills draw on it for 300/400-series stainless, alloy and tool steels, chromium master alloys and coated welding electrodes. HC FeCr alloy addition commonly lands around 20-25 wt% of a 304-type charge, adjusted to scrap chemistry and target Cr. Lump sizing of 10-100mm suits furnace charging and bath dissolution, while P ≤ 0.04% and S ≤ 0.05% protect weldability and ductility. Each lot ships against COA and MTC to ASTM A101 / ISO 5448, XRF/ICP-verified, through multi-regional sourcing — CIF Marmara or Gebze bonded stock, 20 MT FCL. Send target Cr, C ceiling and sizing for a same-grade RFQ.
