High carbon ferro manganese at 74–78% manganese and 6–8% carbon, sized 10–80mm for direct furnace charging. Priced on manganese content basis, with SGS or Bureau Veritas chemistry and screen analysis available at load port.
Ferro manganese is graded by carbon content, and carbon is what determines where it can be used. High carbon FeMn is the workhorse for bulk steelmaking; lower carbon grades cost more and exist for steels where carbon must be controlled tightly.
For standard carbon steel production, HC FeMn is correct and cheapest. Specifying MC or LC where HC would serve adds cost with no metallurgical benefit. Conversely, using HC in a low-carbon grade forces you to remove carbon downstream, which costs more than the grade saving.
Lump size affects how the alloy behaves in the furnace and how much you lose as fines. Undersize generates dust and blows out of the charge; oversize dissolves slowly and skews recovery.
Always state a maximum permissible fines percentage in the contract. Fines below 10mm are a normal by-product of handling, but an uncontrolled fines fraction means you are paying lump price for material you cannot charge. Screen analysis at load port by SGS or Bureau Veritas is the usual safeguard.
On specifications: the figures above reflect standard industry specifications for this product. Your actual batch values are confirmed on the Mill Test Certificate or Certificate of Analysis issued against your specific lot — provided with every shipment, and with sample orders before you commit to bulk. We do not ask buyers to take a specification on trust.
Ferro alloys are bulk commodities where independent verification at load port is standard practice, not an optional extra.
HS Code 7202.11 (HC FeMn, carbon above 2%) · 7202.19 (other FeMn). Packing in 1 MT jumbo bags or bulk.
MOQ is discussed at order stage. Pricing normally on a manganese content basis with adjustment clauses. Payment by advance TT, LC at sight, or DP/DA case by case.
Carbon content. High carbon FeMn runs 6 to 8 percent carbon with 74 to 78 percent manganese and is the workhorse for bulk carbon steelmaking. Medium carbon holds 1 to 2 percent, and low carbon under 1 percent, both at higher manganese and higher price. Use HC unless your steel grade specifically requires carbon control.
Size affects furnace behaviour and recovery. Undersize material generates dust and blows out of the charge; oversize dissolves slowly and skews recovery calculations. The commercial default is 10 to 80mm. Always state a maximum permissible fines percentage, since an uncontrolled fines fraction means paying lump price for material you cannot charge.
Normally on a manganese content basis with adjustment clauses, rather than a flat price per tonne. Agree both the base manganese percentage and the adjustment mechanism for material above or below it before the order is confirmed, alongside the size range and maximum fines.
Yes. For ferro alloys, independent inspection at load port is standard practice rather than an optional extra. SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek verify chemistry, screen analysis for size distribution and fines, and weight before the cargo sails. Given container values, the inspection cost is small relative to the exposure.
High carbon ferro manganese containing more than 2 percent carbon is exported under HS Code 7202.11. Other ferro manganese, including medium and low carbon grades, falls under HS Code 7202.19. We declare the correct code based on the grade ordered.
Standard HC FeMn holds phosphorus to a maximum of 0.30 percent and sulphur to 0.03 percent. Both are tramp elements that carry into your steel, and phosphorus in particular causes cold shortness. If your steel grade has tight residual limits, specify tighter maxima at enquiry stage rather than accepting the standard.
