First, what is sand casting Sand casting - a casting method for producing castings in a sand mold. Steel, iron and most non-ferrous alloy castings can be obtained by sand casting. Since the molding materials used for sand casting are cheap and easy to obtain, the molds are easy to manufacture, and ... Read More

Classification of Cast Iron Cast iron can be divided into several different ways: According to the color of the fracture 1. Grey cast iron：High carbon contentment(2.7%~4.0%), the carbon is mainly exists in the form of flake graphite, and the fracture is gray, that's why it is called gray iron. Grey ... Read More

What Is Grey Cast Iron? The Chemical Composition of Grey Cast Iron Carbon, silicon and manganese in cast iron are the elements that mediate the texture. Phosphorus is the element used for control. Sulfur is the element that should be restricted. Currently, the chemical composition of grey cast iron ... Read More

Application and Grade of Gray Iron Property: Gray cast iron has excellent cutting and machining performance, casting performance, magnetic permeability, good wear resistance, high compressive strength but with low toughness, no forgeability, poor weldability. Application: 1. It is used to manufactur... Read More

The Difference Between Gray Iron and Ductile Iron The graphite of gray iron is flat, and the graphite of ductile iron is spherical. When tapping on the ductile iron, if the sound is similar to that of carbon steel, indicating the grade of ductile iron is good. The gray iron tapping sound is very ... Read More
