Metallurgical Fluorspar Lumps & Powder | CaF₂ ≥ 65% for Smelting Flux
Product Introduction
We supply metallurgical grade fluorspar in both lump and powder forms with CaF₂ content above 65%. As an essential flux material, it is widely used in iron, steel and non-ferrous metal smelting. With well-controlled impurities, it effectively reduces slag melting point and improves fluidity, while minimizing wear on furnace linings. It is fully applicable to blast furnaces, converters, electric furnaces and other metallurgical production facilities.
Core Advantages
-
Excellent Fluxing Performance & Higher Efficiency
Stable CaF₂ content over 65% greatly lowers slag melting point and optimizes fluidity. It facilitates desulfurization and dephosphorization, shortens smelting cycle and increases metal recovery rate.
-
Low Impurity & Reliable Quality
Harmful components including SiO₂, S, P and As are strictly restricted. It prevents quality defects of finished metal and protects smelting equipment for longer service life.
-
Diverse Forms & Wide Adaptability
Available in lumps and powder to match different feeding methods and working conditions of various smelting processes. Custom particle sizes are supported to fit your production lines perfectly.

Q&A
Q1: What is the main function of metallurgical fluorspar in smelting?
A: It acts as a professional flux to reduce slag melting point and improve fluidity. It also helps with desulfurization and dephosphorization, and reduces erosion on furnace linings.
Q2: Why is CaF₂ content important?
A: CaF₂ ≥ 65% ensures stable and powerful fluxing effect. Insufficient content will lead to poor slag fluidity and lower smelting efficiency.
Q3: How to choose between lumps and powder?
A: Fluorspar lumps are ideal for blast furnaces and converters, while powder suits electric furnaces and injection systems. We can customize particle sizes as per your requirements.
Q4: What is the impact of impurity control?
A: Low sulfur, phosphorus and arsenic avoid defects of metal products and reduce equipment corrosion, ensuring stable long-term production.
Q5: What about packaging and transportation?
A: Standard options are jumbo bag and bulk shipment. Custom packaging is available. We support sea and land transportation for bulk orders worldwide.
