This specification does not purport to address all of the safety issues associated with its use. The user is responsible to consult appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limits prior to use. Change Notice: Added Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) grades, Changed name from “Nodular” to “Ductile” Iron. 1.0 SCOPE This specification covers the Company’s requirements for castings made of ductile iron (also known as nodular or spheroidal graphite iron). Ductile irons may be used in the as-cast condition, or when design considerations require improved properties or closer control, may be annealed, normalized, quenched and tempered, or austempered 2.0 INTRODUCTION Conventional Ductile iron is a versatile material with strength characteristics similar to cast steels but with castability and machinability, for the as-cast and annealed grades, similar to gray iron. The as-cast grades are the most economical. The lower strength, annealed, ferritic grades offer the best ductility and toughness. Higher strength in the conventio
