Low-Carbon Pure Iron Billets
Ultra-Clean Base Material for Sustainable Industrial Solutions
Product Overview
Beilun Metals' low-carbon pure iron billets are engineered to meet the growing demand for environmentally responsible, high-performance metallurgical feedstock. With carbon content rigorously controlled below 0.015%, our billets minimize greenhouse emissions during processing while delivering unmatched consistency for critical applications like EV components, hydrogen infrastructure, and ultra-high-vacuum systems.
Core Benefits
Ultra-Low Carbon Footprint
C ≤0.015%: Reduces CO₂ emissions during refining and downstream processing.
S ≤0.003% | P ≤0.008%: Eliminates risks of hot/cold cracking in welded or forged parts.
Consistent Metallurgical Properties
Homogeneous microstructure (ASTM E112 grain size 6–8) ensures uniform mechanical behavior.
Sub-10μm inclusion size (per ASTM E45) for enhanced fatigue resistance.
Eco-Optimized Production
Raw Material: Post-industrial scrap recycled via hydrogen-based DRI (Direct Reduced Iron) technology.
Decarbonization Process:
Vacuum arc remelting (VAR) for precise carbon removal.
Argon oxygen decarburization (AOD) to achieve <20ppm dissolved oxygen.
Sustainability: 40% lower energy consumption vs. conventional BF-BOF routes (verified by ISO 14064).
Diverse Industrial Applications
Green Energy: Fuel cell bipolar plates, electrolyzer membranes, and wind turbine shafts.
Transportation: Battery tray reinforcements, motor laminations, and lightweight chassis parts.
Semiconductor: Sputtering targets and CVD reactor components requiring 99.995% purity.

FAQ
Q: How does low-carbon content benefit hydrogen-related applications?
A: Reduced carbon minimizes hydrogen embrittlement risks, critical for high-pressure H₂ storage tanks and piping.
Q: Can these billets be used in additive manufacturing?
A: Yes. Our <20ppm oxygen grade is compatible with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and binder jetting processes.
Q: Do you supply billets pre-machined for specific geometries?
A: We offer CNC-turned or ground surfaces (up to Ra 0.8μm) for direct integration into automated production lines.
Q: Are your decarbonization processes certified?
A: Production adheres to SBTi (Science-Based Targets initiative) guidelines, with third-party verified EPDs (Environmental Product Declarations).
Q: How do you prevent surface contamination during storage?
A: Billets are vacuum-sealed in multilayer anti-static film with nitrogen inerting for OEM shipments.
