What Are the Differences Between the Gray Iron Casting and Ductile Iron Casting?

As a supplier of OEM castings, I will introduce it to you.

Casting made of ductile iron is called ductile iron casting. Because of its good strength and toughness, it is widely used. However, we often hear a kind of casting called "gray iron casting". Some people who are not very proficient in casting can easily confuse the two and can't tell which one is. As a supplier of iron castings, I will introduce to you the difference between gray iron casting and ductile iron casting and how to distinguish them.

Pros and Cons of Cast Valves

图片
  Pros and Cons of Forged Valves There are many reasons why you may want a forged valve for your application instead of a cast valve. Forged valves do tend to be better for high temperature and high pressure applications. These types of valves are less prone to thermal fatigue because the walls are thinner compared to cast alternatives. Also, forged options have a higher mass, making them mechanically stronger.  However, there are a few reasons why a forged valve may not be best for your application. First, the forging process does create limitations for valve size and shape. Forging generally works better for smaller valves and components. In addition, not every metal is suitable for forging, which limits your options for valve material.    Pros and Cons of Cast Valves Cast valves are a great option where you need quick turnaround and low cost valves, as they require less labor to produce. Also,  the casting process allows for more complex s...

Ductile Iron Valve Plate

  Ductile Iron Valve Plate   1. The Selection Principle of Carbon in Ductile Iron   Carbon is the basic element of nodular cast iron, and high carbon contributes to graphitization. Since the influence of graphite on mechanical properties has been minimized after the graphite is spherical, the carbon content of ductile iron is generally higher, between 3.5% and 3.9%. Too high carbon content will cause graphite to float. Therefore, the upper limit of carbon equivalent in ductile iron is based on the principle that no graphite floats occur.   2. Selection Principle of Silicon in Ductile Iron   Silicon is a strong graphitizing element. In spheroidal graphite cast iron, silicon can not only effectively reduce the white mouth tendency and increase the amount of ferrite, but also has the function of refining the eutectic cluster and improving the roundness of graphite spheres. Silicon increases the ductile-brittle transition temperature of cast iron and reduces the imp...
