calcium carbide lumps

NEW OCEAN GROUP - Your trusted calcium carbide supplier since 2006, specializing in high-purity calcium carbide lumps for steelmaking and acetylene generation. Our 50-200mm lumps offer superior slow-release performance with 82-85% CaC₂ content.


What Are Calcium Carbide Lumps?


Calcium carbide lumps are solid chunks of CaC₂ typically ranging from 25mm to 200mm in size. Compared to powdered or granular forms, our calcium carbide lumps provide:


1.Slower reaction rate - Ideal for continuous acetylene supply

2.Lower dust content - Reduces material loss during transport

3.Better storage stability - Less moisture sensitivity than powders


Technical Note: 50-80mm is the most popular size for industrial applications.
