Dura-Bar's new Heat Treating Guide provides Dura-Bar users with specific recommendations to get the most out of various grades of Dura-Bar gray and ductile iron.
Heat treatment of Dura-Bar can be useful for extending the range of properties that can be obtained in the as-cast condition. Also, carburizing is not necessary with Dura-Bar, and that can be a substantial time and cost savings.
Topics in the guide include:
- Temperature Effects
- Methods and Cycle Times
- Hardenability
- Wear Rate Comparisons: Ductile Iron vs. Steel
- ADI (Austempered Ductile Iron)
The guide is available in both .pdf and printed formats. Click here to download your copy (709 KB), or contact us to request a printed copy.
