Ferro Alloys

​Ferroalloys are alloys of iron with a high proportion of one or more other elements, such as manganese, silicon, or chromium. They are used in the production of steel and other alloys. Here is a list of some common types of ferroalloys:

1. Ferrochrome (FeCr): An alloy of chromium and iron, used to add chromium to steel to make stainless steel.
2. Ferromanganese (FeMn): An alloy of manganese and iron, used to add manganese to steel to improve its strength and hardness.
3. Ferrosilicon (FeSi): An alloy of silicon and iron, used to add silicon to steel and as a deoxidizing agent in steelmaking.
4. Ferrovanadium (FeV): An alloy of vanadium and iron, used to add vanadium to steel, improving its strength and resistance to corrosion.
5. Ferrotitanium (FeTi): An alloy of titanium and iron, used to add titanium to steel to improve its strength and resistance to corrosion.
6. Ferroboron (FeB): An alloy of boron and iron, used to add boron to steel to improve its hardness and wear resistance.
7. Ferrotungsten (FeW): An alloy of tungsten and iron, used to add tungsten to steel, enhancing its hardness and heat resistance.
8. Ferronickel (FeNi): An alloy of nickel and iron, used to add nickel to steel to improve its corrosion resistance and toughness.
9. Ferromolybdenum (FeMo): An alloy of molybdenum and iron, used to add molybdenum to steel, enhancing its strength and resistance to heat and corrosion.
10. Ferroboron (FeB): An alloy of boron and iron, used in steel production to increase hardness and wear resistance.

These ferroalloys play a critical role in the steelmaking process, enabling the production of specialized steel grades with improved properties for various industrial applications.

​

Applications
Steelmaking: Primary consumers of ferroalloys, where they act as deoxidizers, alloying agents, and property enhancers.
Casting: Used in the foundry industry to improve the properties of cast iron and steel castings.
Alloy Production: Essential in creating specialized alloys with enhanced characteristics for specific applications.

Benefits
Improved Material Properties: Enhance mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of steel and iron.
Cost Efficiency: Reduce production costs by enabling the use of lower-grade raw materials.
Versatility: Applicable across various industries, including construction, automotive, aerospace, and machinery.

FAQs about Wedge India
  1. What industries does Wedge India serve with its insulation products?
    Wedge India caters to industries including construction, oil & gas, cold chain logistics, fire protection, cryogenics, EV battery manufacturing, steel and foundry, HVAC, and prefabricated structures.

  2. What makes WedGel Aerogel insulation different from traditional insulation materials?
    WedGel Aerogel offers 2–4 times better thermal performance than fiberglass or mineral wool, is hydrophobic, fire-resistant, and allows for thinner insulation profiles—ideal where space and efficiency are critical.

  3. Do your insulation products comply with international standards?
    Yes. Wedge products comply with ASTM, ISO, GB/T, EN, and ROHS standards. They meet fire safety classifications like ASTM E84, ISO 1182, and GB/T 8642-2012.

  4. Can Wedge insulation materials be used for both high-temperature and cryogenic applications?
    Absolutely. Our range covers temperatures from -200°C to +1750°C, making them suitable for both cryogenic cold chain and extreme heat environments.

  5. What is the typical lifespan of Wedge insulation materials?
    With proper installation, Wedge insulation systems can last over 20 years, retaining thermal performance, moisture resistance, and structural integrity with minimal maintenance.

  6. How does Wedge India help reduce Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)?
    Our Perlite insulation products contain an in-built rust inhibitor that neutralizes chlorides upon moisture contact, preventing CUI in pipelines and equipment.

  7. Do you offer customised insulation solutions?
    Yes. We provide tailor-made sizes, densities, coverings, and thermal performance levels for applications such as fire doors, EV batteries, offshore pipelines, and building facades.

  8. Are your products eco-friendly?
    Many Wedge products are recyclable, asbestos-free, non-toxic, and meet green building standards, making them ideal for LEED and sustainable projects.

  9. Do you provide installation support and technical guidance?
    Yes. Our technical team assists with product selection, thickness calculations, and correct installation methods for maximum insulation efficiency.

  10. How quickly can you deliver products across India and for export?
    Thanks to our India-based manufacturing and global supply chain, we can deliver within 3–7 days locally and manage exports to EMEA, APAC, and Americas efficiently.
