What is Ferromolybdenum?

Ferromolybdenum — commonly referred to as FeMo, FerroMoly, or FeMoly — is used to introduce molybdenum into molten iron and steel during melting processes.

Molybdenum improves:

  • Strength at high temperatures
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Hardenability
  • Overall alloy performance

Carpenter Brothers supplies ferromolybdenum in sizes suitable for furnace or ladle additions, ensuring reliable dissolution and high recovery.

If recovery is not optimal in your process, our technical specialists can help evaluate your melting conditions to maximize results.

Carpenter Brothers, Inc. supplies high-quality ferromolybdenum (FeMo) used in iron and steel melting processes to improve strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance.

Our FeMo products are designed for consistent alloy additions and near-complete recovery when used correctly, helping foundries maintain process control and maximize yield.

  • Reliable alloy chemistry
  • Multiple packaging options
  • Technical support from experienced metallurgists
