Iron Casting
Cast iron is a cast iron alloy characterized by a graphite microstructure, typically containing 2.5–4% carbon and 1–3% silicon. The graphite takes on a flake-like structure, imparting brittleness to the cast iron. However, due to its low cost and ease of machining, cast iron finds widespread use in engineering applications such as machine tool mountings, manhole covers, and counterweights.
