Abstract

A spheroidal graphite cast iron comprising: C: 3.3 to 4.0 mass %, Si: 2.1 to 2.7 mass %, Mn: 0.20 to 0.50 mass %, S: 0.005 to 0.030 mass %, Cu: 0.20 to 0.50 mass %, Mg: 0.03 to 0.06 mass % and the balance: Fe and inevitable impurities, wherein a tensile strength is 550 MPa or more, and an elongation is 12% or more.

Claims (3)

1. A spheroidal graphite cast iron comprising: C: 3.3 to 4.0 mass %, Si: 2.1 to 2.4 mass %, Mn: 0.20 to 0.50 mass %, S: 0.005 to 0.030 mass %, Cu: 0.20 to 0.50 mass %, Mg: 0.03 to 0.06 mass %, Mn and Cu: 0.45 to 0.60 mass % in total and the balance: Fe and inevitable impurities,

wherein a tensile strength is 550 MPa or more, and an elongation is 12% or more, a ratio of the content of Si by mass % and the total contents of Mn and Cu by mass % (Si/(Mn+Cu)) is 4.0 to 5.5, the pearlite area ratio is 30 to 55%, and an impact value at normal temperature and −30° C. is 10 J/cm 2 or more, wherein a graphite nodule count is 300/mm 2 or more and an average grain size of graphite is less than 20 μm.

2. The spheroidal graphite cast iron according claim 1 , wherein a percentage brittle fracture of an impact fracture surface at 0° C. is 50% or less.
