He mea maʻalahi loa ka graphite electrode, no laila kūpono ia no nā ʻano hana like ʻole.Hoʻohana maʻamau ia i nā ʻoihana he nui, e like me ke kila, alumini, a me ka hana keleawe.I ka ʻoihana kila, hoʻohana ʻia ia i ka wā o ka hana ʻana i ke kila, kahi e hana nui ai i ke kaʻina hana uila arc furnace (EAF).Ma kaʻoihana alumini, hoʻohanaʻia ia i ka wā o ka hoʻoheheʻeʻana i ka alumini, akā i kaʻoihana keleawe, hoʻohanaʻia i ka hana hoʻomaʻemaʻe o ka copper.UHP graphite electrode he huahana kūpono no nāʻoihanaʻoihana.
