Ferrosilicon 1-8 mm FeSi 70
FeSi 70 1-8mm Ferrosilicon for Metallurgical Use
We supply Ferrosilicon 70 in 1-8mm size for steelmaking, cast iron and other metallurgical alloying requirements.
The current FeSi70 specification contains 68–74% silicon, with carbon, sulfur, phosphorus, aluminum, manganese and chromium controlled separately.
The 1-8mm size gives you a smaller ferrosilicon fraction than conventional large lumps, which can be useful when your process requires more controlled batching, feeding or alloy addition.
Before you order, we recommend confirming both Chemical Composition and particle size. A correct FeSi70 grade with the wrong size distribution can still create handling or feeding problems in your process.
FeSi 70 1-8mm Chemical Composition
| Grade | Si | C ≤ | S ≤ | P ≤ | Al ≤ | Mn ≤ | Cr ≤ |
| FeSi70 | 68–74% | 0.10% | 0.02% | 0.04% | 2.0% | 0.4% | 0.4% |
| FeSi70Al1 | 68–74% | 0.10% | 0.02% | 0.04% | 1.0% | 0.3% | 0.3% |
Both grades use the same listed Si range of 68–74%, but the impurity limits are different.
If aluminum input matters to your steel or casting chemistry, confirm whether standard FeSi70 or the lower-Al FeSi70Al1 specification is more appropriate before quotation.
FeSi70 vs FeSi70Al1 Ferrosilicon
The main purchasing difference between the two listed grades is impurity control rather than silicon content.
| Comparison | FeSi70 | FeSi70Al1 |
| Si | 68–74% | 68–74% |
| Al Maximum | 2.0% | 1.0% |
| Mn Maximum | 0.4% | 0.3% |
| Cr Maximum | 0.4% | 0.3% |
If standard FeSi70 already meets your downstream specification, a lower-Al grade may not be necessary.
If your process controls aluminum, manganese or chromium more tightly, write those limits directly into the RFQ rather than ordering only by the name "FeSi70."
Why Choose 1-8mm Ferrosilicon 70?
Particle size does not change the chemical grade, but it can change how the material behaves during storage, batching and feeding.
You may choose a 1-8mm FeSi70 specification when your process requires a smaller and more controlled ferrosilicon fraction than conventional lump material.
Before you approve the size specification, confirm:
- minimum particle size;
- maximum particle size;
- acceptable fines percentage;
- oversize tolerance;
- your actual feeding or charging method.
If fines are critical to your process, include the acceptable percentage and inspection method in the purchase specification.
FeSi 70 for Steelmaking and Cast Iron
Ferrosilicon is widely used in steel and cast-iron production as a silicon-bearing metallurgical addition.
FeSi 70 for Steel Deoxidation
Silicon has a strong affinity for oxygen, so ferrosilicon is commonly used in steelmaking deoxidation practice.
If you use FeSi70 for steel production, the required addition should be determined from your target silicon level, melt chemistry and total deoxidation practice.
FeSi 70 for Silicon Adjustment
FeSi70 can also provide silicon during alloy chemistry adjustment.
The actual addition rate should be calculated from the silicon content of the supplied batch and your target steel chemistry rather than from a general percentage recommendation.
FeSi 70 for Cast Iron Production
You can also evaluate FeSi70 for cast-iron and foundry processes where silicon addition is required.
If your foundry process controls Al, Mn or Cr closely, compare the FeSi70 and FeSi70Al1 impurity limits before purchasing.
Ferrosilicon 70 Storage and Inventory
We keep ferroalloy material available for specification matching and export supply.
Before shipment, you can confirm the required grade, particle size, quantity and batch documentation with us.
For 1-8mm material, proper packing and storage are also important because smaller particles can generate more fines during repeated handling than larger ferrosilicon lumps.
FeSi 70 Quality and Batch Confirmation
For industrial purchasing, we recommend checking the delivered batch against the agreed specification instead of relying only on the grade name.
Your inspection items can include:
- Si range;
- C, S and P limits;
- Al, Mn and Cr limits;
- 1-8mm particle-size requirement;
- batch identification;
- Batch COA requirement.
If your internal specification is tighter than the values listed on this page, send us the target limits before quotation.
Customer Visits for FeSi 70 Supply
We work with overseas industrial customers on ferroalloy specification confirmation, batch inspection, packing and export delivery.
For FeSi70 1-8mm, you can send us your required chemistry and particle-size limits before quotation so we can check the available specification first.
