Ductile Iron grade 60-40-18, low temperature service

Categories: Metal; Ferrous Metal; Cast Iron; Alloy Cast Iron; Ductile Iron

Material Carbon represents the total carbon in the listed composition. Cerium is an optional constituent in ductile
Notes: iron. Most ductile irons are specified based on mechanical properties and have loosely defined
compositions. For example, 60-40-18 ductile iron is specified to have a minimum tensile strength of 60 ksi
(414 MPa), a yield strength of 40 ksi (276 MPa) and an elongation of 18%. Ferritic, may be annealed.
Applications include shock resistant parts, low temperature service, machine components subject to shock
and fatigue loads.

Key Words: UNS F32800, ASTM A536-72, MIL-I-11466B(MR), ferritic, shock resistant parts
