Chemical Composition of 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel

 

The high silicon content is the secret to low hysteresis loss. Our 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil maintains tight chemistry controls:

Element Content (%) Role in Performance
Silicon (Si) 2.9% – 3.3% Increases electrical resistivity; reduces eddy currents.
Carbon (C) ≤ 0.003% Prevents magnetic aging.
Manganese (Mn) 0.03 – 0.10% Combines with sulfur to prevent hot brittleness.
Sulfur (S) ≤ 0.001% Minimized to avoid grain boundary weakening.
Aluminum (Al) 0.005 – 0.015% Acts as a deoxidizer and nitride former.

 

Mechanical Properties for Core Lamination

 

To ensure smooth punching and stacking, our 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil maintains these mechanical values:

Property Value Importance
Tensile Strength 340 – 360 MPa Resists breakage during high-speed stamping.
Yield Strength 305 – 325 MPa Ensures flat laminations after cutting.
Elongation 8 – 12% Allows for slight bending during core assembly.
Hardness (HV) 180 – 210 Prevents burr formation on punching dies.
Lamination Factor ≥ 97% Maximizes core density and reduces excitation current.

 

Key Advantages of Using 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil in Transformer Manufacturing

 

Cost-Effective Performance Balance

  • Lower Production Cost: Thinner coils (0.23mm) require more rolling passes, increasing price. Our 0.35mm CRGO offers 90% of the magnetic performance at 70% of the cost.
  • Reduced Punching Burr: The optimal hardness of 0.35mm steel extends die life by 40% compared to ultra-thin grades.

 

Global Compliance and Energy Efficiency

Using our 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil helps your transformers meet:

  • MEPS (Minimum Energy Performance Standards) for Level 1 and Level 2 efficiency.
  • IEEE C57.12.00 for no-load loss limits.
  • IEC 60076 noise reduction requirements (Grain orientation reduces magnetostriction).

 

Reliable Insulation Coating

Every coil features a Tensile Insulating Coating (T2, T3, or T4 grade):

  • Surface Resistivity: > 300 Ω·cm²/cm² (single side).
  • Withstands 800V insulation test.

The coating is heat resistant up to 820°C for stress relief annealing.

 

Applications of 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil in Power Systems

 

The versatility of 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil thickness makes it the backbone of modern electrical grids. Typical applications include:

  • Oil-immersed Distribution Transformers (10kV – 35kV): Where low no-load loss is critical.
  • Dry-type Transformers: Where the 0.35mm thickness reduces audible noise.
  • Reactor Cores: For harmonic filtering in VFDs and HVDC systems.
  • Current Transformers (CT) and Potential Transformers (PT): High permeability ensures accurate metering.
  • Welding Machines & UPS Systems: For reliable energy storage and conversion.
  • Case in point: A German transformer manufacturer replaced their local 0.30mm supply with our 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil and achieved the same efficiency rating while reducing material costs by 12%.

 

Quality Control and Traceability for Every Coil

 

We provide full traceability for every 0.35mm CRGO Silicon Electrical Steel Coil.

 

 Mill Test Certificates (MTC)

Every shipment includes a certified MTC showing:

  • Heat number and chemical analysis (Si%, C%, S%).
  • Magnetic loss at 1.5T & 1.7T.
  • Stacking factor test results.
  • Coating adhesion rating (Class C or better).

Why is CrGO steel used in transformers?

CRGO has lower hysteresis and eddy current losses due to its aligned grain structure, resulting in higher efficiency. This makes CRGO the go-to material for energy-efficient transformers and power distribution systems.

 

Why is silicon steel used in transformers?

Silicon steel is used because it offers high magnetic permeability and low hysteresis loss, which reduces energy wastage during magnetization cycles. The addition of silicon (typically 3–4%) increases resistivity, minimizing eddy current losses and improving efficiency.
