For Rod Mills, Cable & Wire Producers

Feedstock a rod mill can actually plan around

Continuous-cast rod mills and cable manufacturers need consistent cathode quality and a supply line that scales past a single cargo. That's the buyer this desk is built for.

Why Quality Consistency Matters Here

Cathode quality flows straight into rod quality

A continuous-cast rod mill or cable line is sensitive to cathode consistency in a way a general trading buyer isn't — impurity variance shows up downstream as conductivity and drawability issues. That's why the specification here is fixed and verified at two points before it ever reaches a mill: warehouse verification at origin, then independent SGS inspection at load port.

Specification

99.95% min. Cu

ASTM B115 Grade 1 / GB/T 467-2010 Cu-CATH-1 — the standard reference grade for continuous casting and wire drawing.

Verification

2-stage independent inspection

Kinshasa warehouse verification, then SGS at load port, with re-inspection available at discharge.

Built to Scale With Production

Trial cargo first, then a rolling monthly line

500 MT

Trial cargo — qualify the mill's process against this cathode before committing further

Up to 5,000 MT

Monthly capacity once a rolling contract is agreed

FOB / CIF

Delivered to your production schedule via Dar es Salaam or Mombasa
