Iron is the foremost construction material in the world and the dominant process for producing high quality iron is via the Blast Furnace route. Tokai COBEX is the leading carbon and graphite lining supplier for blast furnaces.

In the beginning of the 60’s, the refractory lining of the lower part up to the middle stack of blast furnaces was converted successfully to carbon and graphite materials. The improvement of material and design solutions have significantly increased the productivity and campaign life of Blast Furnaces since then. We have been a competent partner to the iron and steel industry since the beginning and based on our comprehensive carbon product portfolio, Tokai COBEX is able to meet all specific requirements for Blast Furnaces. The range consists of carbon and graphite grades including microporous and supermicroporous carbon, pastes, and glues to cater to the specific needs of the different areas in Blast Furnaces as well as Submerged Arc (Reduction) Furnaces. Intensive development work ensures continued best solutions for the future. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing capability provides machining with exact dimensions combined with narrow tolerances.

We gladly advise you in finding the best material solution for your furnace design.
