Chromium Metal 99.23% is widely used because it improves hardness, wear resistance, and heat stability. In steelmaking, it works with martensitic and ferritic grades. At the same time, it strengthens hard-facing overlays and provides a clean base for chemical and catalyst processes.

ToggleWhen buying Chromium Metal, three points usually guide the decision. First, chemistry and impurity limits must be controlled. Second, the particle size has to match the process. Finally, buyers expect safe and reliable handling at the port.
Grade: Chromium Metal 99.23%
Form: Lumps 10–50 mm (custom sizes on request)
Main Uses: Steel alloys, hard-facing, high-temperature parts, and chemical feedstock
Packing Options: 25 kg lined bags or 1 MT jumbo bags, palletized and wrapped
Documents: COA per lot, MSDS, Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading
Trade Terms: FOB, CIF, CFR available
As a result, Chromium Metal is a flexible choice for many industries.
Steel & Foundries – It increases hardness and improves oxidation resistance in tool steels and high-Cr irons.
Surface Engineering – It supports hard-facing wires, rods, and overlays that must resist wear and impact.
High-Temperature Parts – It protects components exposed to repeated heat and scale.
Chemicals & Catalysts – It provides clean feedstock where tight impurity control is needed.
Therefore, Chromium Metal plays a key role across both metallurgical and chemical supply chains.
Element | Symbol | Content (%) |
---|---|---|
Chromium | Cr | 99.23 |
Aluminium | Al | 0.05 |
Iron | Fe | 0.28 |
Carbon | C | 0.009 |

Silicon | Si | 0.14 |
A COA is issued with every lot. Consequently, buyers can check quality before charging.
Form: Lumps for standard alloy charging
Size: 10–50 mm standard (other ranges available)
Packing: 25 kg lined bags or 1 MT jumbo bags, moisture-protected and palletized
Handling: Heat-treated pallets, stretch-wrapped, and clearly labeled
In addition, buyers receive clear storage guidance: keep dry, reseal opened bags, and reduce open-air exposure.
Charging: Add in EAF/IF or secondary metallurgy for steady recovery.
Recovery: Varies with slag chemistry and furnace conditions.
Interactions: Track Fe and Si from all feeds to stay within limits.
Traceability: Lot and pallet IDs link directly to the COA.
Thus, Chromium Metal integrates smoothly into most melt routes.
Traceability: Each lot comes with a COA and optional retention samples.
Compliance: Matches ASTM, EN, and JIS standards where required.
Documentation: Invoice, Packing List, COA, MSDS, Bill of Lading; origin and inspection certificates on request.
Logistics: Shipped FOB, CIF, or CFR. In addition, consolidation with other metals is possible under segregation.
Because of this, supply remains consistent, compliant, and easy to import.
When sending an enquiry for Chromium Metal, include:
Chemistry limits (Fe, Si, C, P)
Size window (10–50 mm or custom)
Volume and delivery schedule
Packing choice (25 kg vs 1 MT)
Destination port and trade terms
Certificate needs (origin, SGS, inspection)
This information speeds up quotation and avoids delays.
Standard size is 10–50 mm lumps. Custom sizes are available for automated feeding systems.
Packed in lined 25 kg bags or 1 MT jumbo bags, palletized and stretch-wrapped to protect against moisture.
Yes. Every lot of Chromium Metal ships with a COA matching the agreed specification.
yes. Fe, Si, C, and P limits can be set in the purchase order and verified on the COA.
Absolutely. Its residual profile and particle size make it ideal for wires, rods, and overlay formulations.
