High-Silicon Ferrosilicon 82/84 Lumps from China
Lump-form ferrosilicon with 82-84% silicon content, essential for producing low-carbon steels and as a source of silicon in foundry applications. Classified under HTS 7202.21.75.00 due to its silicon weight percentage between 80% and 90% in an iron-silicon alloy matrix. Commonly used in electric arc furnaces for steel desoxidation.

Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates specifying exact silicon percentage and impurity levels; use steel drums or bulk containers suitable for heavy alloys; watch for anti-dumping duties on ferrosilicon from certain origins
