Ductile iron in China
Ductile iron is a cast iron in which
graphite exists in a spherical form,is also called nodular cast iron,due
to the comprehensive performance is close to steel,Ductile iron is
widely used in Mechanical crankshaft, camshaft, connecting shaft,
connecting rod, gear, clutch plate, hydraulic cylinder and other parts.
The chemical composition of nodular cast iron is usually as follows:
C 3.0~4.0% and Si 1.8~3.2%
Because of the difference in strength ,
wear resistance and other mechanical properties,ductile iron is
developed in many different grades,for example QT400,QT450,QT500 and QT
600 etc.
However,when actually producing nodular
cast iron parts,some factories cannot effectively control casting
defects such as shrinkage shrinkage and porosity,if your supplier has
these problem,please contact to us,
our factory has enough experience to provide the help for you.
We also share some ductile iron grade,as follow:
Ductile Iron Grade:
