60-40-18 Ductile Iron
Overview
Dura-Bar 60-40-18 is a nodular iron with a fully ferritic matrix. This iron grade’s microstructure is achieved through annealing and offers excellent ductility and impact strength. Dura-Bar 60-40-18 has the most ductility out of the ductile iron family of Dura-Bar. Annealed Dura-Bar is NACE compliant, ASTM A395, and ASTM A536.

Microstructure
The microstructure consists of Types I & II nodular graphite as defined in ASTM A247. The matrix is 100% ferrite. The edge or rim will have a higher nodular count. Chill carbides will be less than 5% in any field at 100x and will be well dispersed.
