Description

Cast Iron CAS NO 11097-15-7 is a high-performance, multi-component alloy primarily composed of iron, carbon, and silicon, engineered for exceptional durability and structural integrity. This material is critical for applications demanding high strength, excellent wear resistance, and superior castability under thermal stress. It is an essential raw material for manufacturers in the heavy machinery, automotive, construction, and industrial equipment sectors seeking reliable and cost-effective metal components.

Application

• Automotive Components: Manufacturing of engine blocks, cylinder heads, brake discs, and gearbox housings.
• Heavy Machinery & Industrial Equipment: Production of machine tool beds, frames, pump housings, and heavy-duty valves.
• Construction & Infrastructure: Fabrication of manhole covers, drainage grates, pipes, and structural supports.
• Consumer & Household Goods: Used in cookware, such as pans and Dutch ovens, and decorative architectural elements.
• Power Generation: Components for wind turbine housings and parts for traditional power plant machinery.
• Agricultural Machinery: Durable parts for tractors, ploughshares, and other farming equipment.

Quality Control

Our cast iron is produced under strict process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and meets rigorous industry specifications for composition and mechanical properties. Quality is verified through advanced spectrometry, mechanical testing (tensile strength, hardness), and microstructural analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing chemical composition and physical properties are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a dry, well-ventilated warehouse. Store away from corrosive chemicals and environments to prevent rust and surface degradation. Pallets or bundles should be kept off the ground and protected from excessive moisture. Standard ambient temperature conditions are suitable.
