What Is Cored Wire?

Cored wire is a low-carbon steel sheath filled with alloy or metal powder, fed into the ladle or mould by a wire feeder so that the reagent reacts below the slag layer instead of burning at the surface.

Bright Alloys supplies Ø9 mm and Ø13 mm cored wire with CaSi, CaFe, pure calcium, FeSiMg, inoculant and carbon cores, with core weight and sheath thickness matched to your feeding equipment.

Applications and Performance

Calcium Treatment in Secondary Metallurgy

CaSi and CaFe wires deliver calcium deep into the ladle for desulfurization and inclusion modification in linepipe, AHSS and bearing steel grades.

Ductile Iron Spheroidizing and Inoculation

FeSiMg and inoculant wires give a controlled, repeatable magnesium recovery, replacing tundish-cover and in-mould methods on high-volume casting lines.

Recarburization and Alloy Addition

Carbon and alloy wires adjust carbon and microalloy content with the reagent released under the slag rather than lost to oxidation at the bath surface.

Cored Wire FAQs

What is cored wire used for? +

Cored wire is used in steelmaking and foundries for deoxidation, desulfurization, calcium treatment, and inoculation. Our CaSi CoredWire efficiently removes oxygen and sulfur from molten steel, while Spheroidizing CoredWire improves graphite shape in ductile iron.

What are the main types of cored wire available? +

We supply six standard types: CaSi, CaFe, Inoculant, Spheroidizing, Carbon, and Pure Calcium CoredWire. Each type has specific chemical composition designed for different metallurgical applications.

What diameter is available for cored wire? +

Standard diameter is 9-13mm, packed in coils. Custom diameters can be produced per your requirements. For more details, contact us.

How to select the right cored wire for my steelmaking process? +

Selection depends on the desired treatment: use CaSi for deoxidation/desulfurization, CaFe for deep desulfurization, Inoculant CoredWire for cast iron, etc. Our technical team can help match your grade and specifications; request a consultation.

Are your cored wire products certified? +

Yes, all cored wire products are manufactured under ISO 9001 quality management. We provide mill test certificates with chemical composition and physical properties. View our quality control standards.
