Ferro Vanadium FeV80 High Vanadium Content Silver Grey Lumps
Ferro vanadium FeV80 is a premium alloy distinguished by its exceptional vanadium concentration (typically 78-82%), standing as a cornerstone material in modern steel metallurgy. Recognizable by its uniform silver-grey lumps, this ferroalloy is engineered to enhance the performance of structural and tool steels through precise alloying and hardening mechanisms.
Its high vanadium content directly contributes to superior grain refinement, elevated tensile strength, and enhanced resistance to wear and corrosion—properties critical for applications ranging from automotive components to heavy machinery.
