Description

SG iron, also known as ductile iron, offers a compelling combination of high strength, excellent ductility, and exceptional castability, making it a superior material choice for a wide range of applications. Our SG iron castings provide consistent quality and performance, exceeding industry standards.

What makes SG Iron Castings Special?

Unlike grey iron, SG iron boasts a unique microstructure due to the addition of magnesium and cerium during the casting process. This results in a nodular graphite structure, giving it properties significantly superior to grey iron in terms of:

• High Tensile Strength: SG iron exhibits tensile strength comparable to many steels, making it ideal for applications requiring high load-bearing capacity. Specific tensile strength varies based on grade and casting complexity, ranging from [Insert typical tensile strength range here, e.g., 40-100 ksi].
• Excellent Ductility and Toughness: The nodular graphite structure allows for significant elongation and impact resistance, resulting in better shock absorption and reduced brittleness compared to grey iron. This contributes to increased component lifespan and reliability, even under demanding conditions.
• Superior Fatigue Resistance: SG iron demonstrates enhanced resistance to fatigue failure compared to grey iron, making it a suitable choice for components subjected to cyclic loading. This is crucial for applications involving vibration or repeated stress.
• Excellent Machinability: SG iron offers good machinability, streamlining the secondary manufacturing processes and reducing overall production costs. This ease of machining facilitates precise dimensional tolerances and complex geometries.
• Improved Wear Resistance: Depending on the specific grade and potential heat treatments, SG iron can exhibit good wear resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring long-term durability under abrasive conditions.

Applications:

The versatile properties of our SG iron castings make them suitable for a wide variety of applications, including:

• Automotive: Engine components (crankshafts, cylinder blocks, gearbox housings), suspension parts, brake components.
• Agricultural Machinery: Gearboxes, housings, sprockets, and other heavily loaded components.
• Construction Equipment: Hydraulic components, structural parts, and heavy-duty machinery components.
• Industrial Machinery: Pump casings, valve bodies, gears, and other components subject to high stress and wear.
• Fluid Handling: Pipe fittings, valves, pump housings, and other components requiring high pressure resistance.
