Iron Alloys

Typical uses of iron castings include:

  • Certain impellers and volutes
  • Shell liners and lifter bars in grinding mills
  • Gearboxes
  • Pipes
  • Balls and rings

Types of Iron Alloys

CAST IRON

Cast Iron alloys contain a carbon content more than 2%. These alloys have a relatively low melting point, generally giving them:

  • Good castability
  • Excellent machinability
  • Good wear resistance
  • Resistance to oxidation

WHITE CAST

White Cast Iron alloys contain lower levels of carbon. This family of alloys offers:

  • Improved tensile strength
  • High compressive strength and
    excellent wear resistance
  • Good hardness
  • Abrasion resistance
  • Relatively low cost

WEAR-RESISTANT CAST IRON

Wear-resistant cast iron offers:

  • Resistance to oxidation
  • Resistance to the impacts of high-sulfur flue gas

Wear-resistant cast iron is best used in low stress applications that do not require impact strength.
