 Miller and Company
LLC is the exclusive agent of Sorelmetal® in the United States.
Sorelmetal® is
used by high quality ferrous foundries in the production of ductile iron
castings and provides metallurgical control over the adverse tramp elements
from the scrap component of the charge.
Sorelmetal®, an alloy of iron and carbon, is manufactured
from ilmenite ore in an electric arc furnace smelting process by Rio
Tinto Iron & Titanium at its Rio Tinto Fer et Titane Inc. plant in Sorel,
Tracy, Quebec, Canada and Richards
Bay Titanium (RBT), in Richards Bay, South Africa. Total worldwide production
exceeds 800,000 metric tons per year.

Sorelmetal®Features and Benefits
|
| • |
Sorelmetal® is treated to remove the sulfur, which allows for efficient
and economical magnesium treatments.
|
|
•
|
Practically manganese free, Sorelmetal® is used to dilute manganese
in base iron in the ductile iron production process.
|
|
•
|
Because Sorelmetal® is low in trace elements, it is the ideal choice
of a high purity iron unit for the dilution of harmful trace elements
from the scrap component of the charge.
|
|
•
|
Sorelmetal®
has a lower energy requirement for melting. Its melting temperature
is a
low 2095°F (1145°C) which allows for it to go
into solution very rapidly increasing productivity and, simultaneously,
reducing production costs.
