Frequently Asked Questions
How are HC FeCr Cr content and source country selected?
Cr ≥60% (typically 60-65%), C ≤8.0%, Si ≤3.0%. Arsam multi-source: KZ ERG/Kazchrome (Tikhvin-free, EU sanctions resilient), Iranian source (active shipment), Chinese backup. Supplier selection based on customer CBAM sensitivity.
What is Arsam's position on EU CBAM for HC FeCr?
Yıldırım-Yılmaden Tikhvin (Russia) is under EU sanctions — Arsam positions itself as 'Tikhvin-free, KZ-sourced HC FeCr + Iranian low-carbon HE feed.' Carbon Passport pilot Q4 2026 (DNV verification). Demand rising on the Beltrame/Salzgitter/Pittini buyer side.
What is the HC FeCr dosage in stainless steel production?
For stainless 304 (18% Cr), 20-25 wt% HC FeCr usage is typical (depending on bath Cr target). For the Tosyalı İskenderun Stainless Line, the monthly consumption band is 200-500 tons. Dosage differs for alloy steel types.
What is the HC FeCr logistics lead time for MENA?
Dubai bonded warehouse 3-5 days for MENA customers (Hadeed/Ezz/Emirates Steel). From KZ ERG source, İstanbul → Dubai re-export 21-28 days. Iranian source Bandar Abbas → Jebel Ali 14-21 days by sea.
