The use of ductile iron casting, using the most popular green sand molding process, has grown rapidly. Many products, originally manufactured in gray and malleable iron, as well as steel, have converted to ductile iron casting as the material of choice, due to its inherent characteristics. When comparing the characteristics of ductile iron casting; castability, machinability, damping properties and the economic benefit of production, it is almost equal to those for which gray iron is famous. Why would you want to go to ductile iron if it is almost equal to gray iron? The reasons are, because it offers the designer superior mechanical properties with higher quality and performance, at low costs. Deeco offer fully machined and painted ductile iron casting at savings of 10-20 percent.
