Cored wire
Cored wire is used to inject a modifying material into molten cast iron. A cored wire is a hollow wire, approximately 0.3 mm thick, filled with a specific modifying agent based on the selected cored wire type. Cored wire can be used for all types of cast iron with spheroidal graphite. We are able to meet very narrow tolerance ranges thanks to our very precise dosage system.
