Foundry Coke
Foundry coke is a large, strong coke grade intended to provide heat and carbon in cupola operation. Lump size, fixed carbon, ash, sulphur, reactivity and resistance to degradation must be matched to the foundry process.
Foundry Coke technical profile
This public profile explains the product forms, inspection scope, standards context and documentation needed for a technical enquiry. It does not publish unconfirmed supplier limits.
Commercial forms and classification
Final grade designations and producer-specific forms are confirmed against supplier documentation during quotation.
- Foundry coke
- Cupola coke
- Large screened coke
Detailed specification available with quotation.
Grade-specific chemical, physical or mechanical limits, dimensions, tolerances, packaging and inspection evidence are available only with the quotation and supplier confirmation.
Industrial use contexts
Application suitability depends on the confirmed grade and supplier evidence. These uses define the technical purchasing context rather than a supply guarantee.
- Iron foundry cupolas
- Metal melting and superheating
- Foundry carbon input
Inspection evidence and controlled documents
Testing, inspection and documentation are reviewed against the exact grade, producer and lot before an offer is confirmed.
- Proximate and sulphur analysis
- Size distribution
- Strength and reactivity review
Handling, transport and storage basis
Bulk or big-bag supply should preserve the large size fraction and limit breakage and contamination.
Technical FAQ
What should a buyer specify for Foundry Coke?
State the required product form or grade, quantity, destination, Incoterm, application and inspection or documentation requirements. The quotation then identifies the supplier-confirmed specification.
Do the public references constitute a HAN METALS supply specification?
No. Public standards and industry references support technical comparison. Only the quotation and applicable supplier TDS, COA or MTC define the offered material.
Which checks are relevant to Foundry Coke?
Proximate and sulphur analysis, Size distribution, Strength and reactivity review are reviewed as applicable to the requested grade, product form and lot.

HM-07-01Blast Furnace CokeBlast furnace coke is a structural and reactive carbon burden evaluated by size stability, fixed carbon, ash, sulphur, moisture and strength after reaction. CRI and CSR results are meaningful only with the stated test method and sampling basis.
HM-07-03Coke BreezeCoke breeze is the fine fraction produced during coke screening and handling. Its particle distribution, fixed carbon, ash, sulphur and moisture determine suitability for sinter plants, agglomeration or other controlled uses.
HM-07-04Sized CokeSized coke is screened to a buyer-defined particle band for a specific furnace or metallurgical process. The acceptable oversize, undersize, strength, ash, sulphur and moisture limits must be stated with the sampling method.
