Abstract
Meehanite GE225 is an intermediate-tensile-strength gray cast iron that has a predominantly pearlitic matrix and a minimum tensile strength of 225 MPa (33 ksi), when determined on test pieces machined from separately cast, 30 mm (1.2 in.) diameter test bars. Compared with the lower strength gray cast iron grades, Meehanite GE225 contains lower carbon and silicon contents, while still maintaining excellent thermal conductivity, damping capacity and machinability. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance as well as casting, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: CI-84. Producer or source: Meehanite Metal Corporation.
