More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Burn, baby! Burn! The Carbide/Graphite Group makes it possible for minimills to produce steel. The company makes graphite electrodes (about 75% of sales) and calcium carbide products, and it produces needle coke (the primary raw material for the production of graphite electrodes). Graphite electrodes conduct electricity and are consumed in electric arc furnaces in minimill steelmaking processes. In addition to producing the needle coke used to make its own electrodes, the company sells needle coke to other graphite electrode producers. Carbide/Graphite's calcium carbide products are used to make acetylene, a substance that is used in the manufacture of specialty chemicals and as a fuel in welding and metal cutting.
