Etching | 3% Nital |
The microstructure of this ductile iron consists of approx. 50/50 ferrite and pearlite. The minimum tensile strength is 450 MPa, the minimum elongation at fracture is 10%.
Graphite classification according to EN ISO 945-1:2019
- Graphite form VI
- Guide number for the size range: 6
The SEM images show a force fracture by tensile testing. The fracture is predominantly ductile (with coarse honeycombs around the graphite balls and micro-honeycombs on the combs), but also contains cleavage fracture components.
