The blast furnaces of the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Association have been functioning with coke belonging to the >40 mm class until recently. The possibility of using coke belonging to the 40-25 mm class in a blast furnace process was investigated in view of the considerable shortage of over 40 mm cake. Implementing this measure makes is possible to increase metallurgical coke resources by 7-9%. In order to evaluate the possibility of using coke lumps measuring 40-25 mm in a blast-furnace smelting process, indices of the physicomechanical properties of individual metallurgical coke classes were investigated. Data on the mechanical tests of coke belonging to the following classes: >80, 80-60, 60-40, and 40-25 mm are presented. The coke came from batteries 1-4; the tests were run in a lab drum.
