Strontium is the main inoculating element of this alloy which is based on a Ferro-Silicon master alloy. The high silicon content of about 75 % Silicon leads to good dissolving properties of the alloy even if used at lower pouring temperatures. The highly controlled Strontium level within the inoculant creates a consistent inoculating effect which reduces carbide formation without increasing cell counts.
Advantages
Promotes less shrinkage than the other inoculants
Gives maximum chill reduction in grey iron
Extremely effective inoculant for ductile iron when a low Rare Earth containing nodulariser is used
Low reactive element content gives less dross and less risk of pinholes
Cost-effective due to low addition rate
