What is ASTM A536?

What is ASTM A536?

ASTM A536 refers to the standard specification for ductile iron castings. Ductile iron is also called spheroidal graphite iron or nodular iron. In contrast to gray iron, where the graphite occurs as a network of flakes, the graphite in ductile iron occurs as spheroids.

What is ASTM A48?

ASTM A48 is the most popular gray iron casting specification and classifies castings to various grades by their tensile strength. In order to standardize solidification and cooling rate, standard test specimen sizes are used to ensure conformance to the specification.

What material is FCD?

Abstract. Nodular cast iron or Ferro casting ductile (FCD) is the developmental result of grey cast iron. Nodular cast iron has mechanical properties similar to carbon steel, which are better than the mechanical properties of grey cast iron. The 1.5 mm/s crosshead speed created a tensile strength of 549.8 N/mm2.

What material is GGG40?

nodular cast iron alloy
GGG40 is the most commonly used nodular cast iron alloy and has a predominantly ferritic structure. This cast iron offers excellent machinability combined with good impact resistance, high electrical conductivity, good elongation properties and magnetic permeability. The material cannot be welded.

What is ASTM A126?

ASTM A126, 2004 Edition, May 1, 2004 – Standard Specification for Gray Iron Castings for Valves, Flanges, and Pipe Fittings. This specification covers three classes of gray iron for castings intended for use as valve pressure-retaining parts, pipe fittings, and flanges.

What material is FCD450?

Nodular graphite cast iron
Nodular graphite cast iron, or ductile iron, (FCD450-10 of JIS G 5502) provides a good combination of rigidity and fracture resistance, and it is suitable where heavy vibration or impact forces are present.

What is scs13a?

ACI-ASTM CF8 steel is an austenitic stainless steel formulated for casting. Cited properties are appropriate for the heat treated (HT) condition.

What is en Gjl?

Grey iron EN-GJL-200 is a type of cast iron that has a graphite microstructure. It is named after the grey colour of the fracture it forms, which is due to the presence of graphite. It is the most common cast iron and the most widely used cast material based on weight.

What is gjs400?

EN-GJS-400-15C, also known as GGG40, is one of the most used nodular cast iron grades and has a predominantly ferritic structure. This grade offers superior machinability combined with good impact resistance, good elongation properties and magnetic permeability.
