FOREWORD

This Indian Standard ( Fourth Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalized by the Pig Iron and Cast Iron Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical
Rngincering DivirionCouncil.
This standard was first published in 1950 and subsequently revised in 1962, 1970 and 1978. While
reviewing this standard in the light of the experience gained during these years, the committee decided to
reviseit to align with the present practices followed by the Indian industries and to bring it in line with
the other overseas standards.
The various diameters of test bar according to the section size of the castings have been replaced by a
single size of test bar. Guidance on the effect of section size of the casting on the tensile strength is, how-
ever, given in Annex A. A comparison between grades is given in Annex B.
The production of castings in the higher gr@es of grey cast iron often involve3 special techniques. It is
recommended, therefore, that for either large or intricate castings or ;1 casting involving both these condi-
tions or where the castings have to withstand exception conditions, the grade of grey cast iron selected and
any heat treatment involved should be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser. The hipher
grades of grey cast iron ( that is, Grade FG300, FG350 and FG400 ) present special difficulties for section
10 mm ,and thinner.

For the benefit of the purchaser, typical properties of grey cast iron have been added in Annex C.
Information to be supplied by the purchaser while ordering grey iron castings according to this specification
is given in Annex D.
In the formulation of thir standard assistance has been derived from IS0 185 ‘Grey Cast Iron - Specifi-
cation’ issued by International Organization for Standardization.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this otindard is complied with, the final
value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a teat or analysis, shall be rounded of? in accordance
with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rouading off numerical values ( rrvisod ) ‘. The number of significant places
retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the apccified value in this standard.

APPROXIMATE VARIATION OF STRENGTH

A-l The Indian Standard grades of grey cast iron
are based on the minimum tehsile strength ob-
tained when metal is cast into test bars of 30 mm
diameter. The strength developed by a given
metal shall vary with the coolingrate in the mould
higher strengths being obtained if the same metal
is cast into smaller bars than 30 mm diameter
and lower strengths if the metal is cast into bars
larger than 30 mm diameter. Similarly, the cool-
ing rate of a flat plate.is slower than that of a bar
whose diameter is equal to the thickness of the
plate so that the strength developed in the plate
will be lower than that developed in the bar.
A-l.1 The cooling rate of a casting in a mould
( hence the strength developed in any $rticular
section thickness by the metal employed for its
manufacture ) is influenced also by the presence
of cores, changes in section thickness, the presence
A-2 Figure 2 gives a guide to the likely variation
in tensile strength in different sections when a
given grade of grey iron is cast into a casting of
simple shape and uniform thickness or containing
cored holes where the cooling rate in the mould
of a given section shall differ from that in a castmg
of sample shape and uniform thickness, the dia-
gram provides only an approximate guide to the
likely tensile strength in different sections and
design should be based on the measured tensile
strength in critical parts of the casting.
A-2.1 Table 4 gives guidance to the likely varia-
tion in tensile strength for different casting section
thicknesses when a given grade of grey cast iron
is cast into a casting of simple shape and uni-
form thickness. For casting of non-uniform

NOTES

1 The typical properties given in this Annex are the proprrties in a 30 mm diameter separately cast test bar or
in a casting section correctly represented by this size of test bar. Where the tensile strength does not correspond
to that given, other properties may differ slightly from those given.
2 Notched tensile strengths increase slightly as notch severity ratio, notch radius, notch diameter, increase
above 0’47.
3 The values quoted for coefficient of thermal expansion. of Grade FG 400 are for material in pearlitic iron.
Where accicular iron is used for this grade appropriate values are:

20°C to 200% 15’0 x 10*/K

20% to 400°C 16’5 x lo-s/K

I) Values depend on the composition of iron.
