Gray Iron Parts Manufacturer

What is Gray Iron?

Gray iron, or gray cast iron, is the most commonly used type of cast iron due to its excellent vibration damping, thermal conductivity and castability. Its name comes from the gray appearance of its fracture surface, caused by the graphite flakes in its microstructure. Graphite flakes make gray iron easy to machine and ideal for components requiring dimensional stability and high wear resistance without extreme tensile loads.
