Low Carbon Ferro Manganese


Low Carbon Ferro Manganese (LC FeMn) is a specialized ferroalloy used to introduce manganese into steel while maintaining very low carbon levels. It is essential in steel grades where carbon must be controlled for properties like weldability and corrosion resistance.

Specifications:
• Manganese (Mn): 70–80% (min)
• Carbon (C): ≤ 0.10% (max)
• Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.15% (max)
• Silicon (Si): typically ≤ 0.5%
• Form: Lumps, granules, powder

  • Description
  • Additional Information
  • Applications

Low Carbon Ferro Manganese is produced via refined metallurgical processes that limit carbon content. It provides manganese to steel melts while preserving a low-carbon chemistry, suitable for advanced steels and alloys.

  • Delivers manganese with minimal carbon addition

  • Improves strength, toughness, and machinability

  • Functions as a deoxidizer and sulfur controller

  • Essential in steels, tool steels, and stainless alloys with tight carbon specs
