Foundry Coke is a high quality grade of coke vital for efficient cupola melting.  The use of larger sized material (75 to 150 mm) with a dense structure, and low ash, high Carbon and high heat values offers the following advantages: -
Increased metal temperature
Reduced blasting pressure
Reduced reaction with Carbon Dioxide
Reduced breakage from handling
