The length and diameter of the graphite electrode are important indicators of the size specifications of the graphite electrodes. Of course, the length advantage of the graphite electrodes are also obvious.
The graphite electrode length is generally in the range of 1600 mm to 2700 mm. Some manufacturers can make graphite electrodes 2900mm. There is also an super long graphite electrode, the length of such a graphite electrode is 3600mm. It is incredible!
The advantages of the Super Long Graphite Electrodes are as follows for each customer:
- Less jointing due to longer electrodes – therefore fewer joint issues
- Decrease of electrode jointing time due to fewer joints leading to increased productivity
- Less electrode columns in parking position will yield less oxidation and graphite losses
- Lower production costs resulting from increased number of heats between electrode additions
