EN(-1561)-GJL-250 (GG25)

Continuously Cast Spheroidal Graphite Iron


Characteristics
Offers a good combination of strength and wear resistance, while still possessing good machinability and produces excellent surface finishes. Noise and
vibration damping are excellent in this grade. Compares with standard
EN(-1561-GJL)-250 (GG25 and Meehanite GD250).

BrinellHardness
(Range) 160-230 (10mm dia Ball 3000Kg load) depending on section size.
Hardness Readings are taken across the entire section of the bar. Hardness
values for rectangles depend on the ratio of height to width and can be supplied upon request.
Microstructure
Contains type A graphite flakes in accordance with ASTM A247. The rim
contains fine Type D and E interdendritic graphite. The matrix is greater than
50% pearlitic. The rim is predominantly ferritic, and may contain up to 5% dispersed fine carbides. (Photo 100x magnification)
