ASM CI-84 PDF

Meehanite GE225 is an intermediate-tensile-strength gray cast iron that has a predominantly pearlitic matrix and a minimum tensile strength of 225 MPa (33 ksi), when determined on test pieces machined from separately cast, 30 mm (1.2 in.) diameter test bars. Compared with the lower strength gray cast iron grades, Meehanite GE225 contains lower carbon and silicon contents, whilst still maintaining excellent thermal conductivity, damping capacity and machinability.
