Graphite bars are used in a variety of applications, including electrical discharge machining (EDM), spark erosion, and in the production of carbon fiber.
Graphite bars are available in a variety of grades, each with its own unique properties. Some of the most common grades include EG, PG, and HP.
Graphite bars are made from a mixture of petroleum coke and coal tar pitch. The mixture is heated to a high temperature and then extruded into shape.
Graphite bars offer a number of advantages, including high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, and excellent machinability.
