Graphite electrodes lift plug is used for the transfer of graphite electrode and electrode columns to or from the electric arc furnace. It is a safe and effective lifting device with hoisting ring. In this way, the accidental breakage of the electrode and thread injury caused by vibration are avoidable during the hoisting process.
Our lifting plugs are manufactured with high quality certified steel components and original graphite parts. The threads of the lifting plugs are exactly matched with the electrode socket. They also have the same character with the graphite electrode. While transporting the electrode columns, we recommend to use a shock absorber.
- High precision thread accuracy.
- Resistant to elevated temperature.
- High machining accuracy, good surface finishing.
- Outstanding resistance to breakage.
- Safe and effective for electrode transfer.
- Proof-tested by a certified calibrated hydraulic testing machine.
