Abstract

A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron obtainable without being subjected to an austemper treatment. The non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a tensile strength of 650-850 MPa and an elongation of 7.0-14.5%. In the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron, V-notch material has a fatigue limit of 290 MPa or more. The non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has well-balanced mechanical properties both in tensile strength and elongation and improved tensile strength and elongation than conventional one.

Claims (10)

1. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron obtainable without being subjected to an austemper treatment, characterized in that the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a tensile strength of 650-850 MPa and an elongation of 7.0-14.5%, wherein the spheroidal graphite cast iron consists essentially of 0.05 to 0.45% by mass Mn, 2.0 to 4.0% by mass Ni, 3.1 to 4.0% by mass C, 1.8 to 3.0% by mass Si, up to 0.05% by mass P, up to 0.02% by mass S, 0.02 to 0.06% by mass Mg, and the balance Fe.

2. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron obtained without being subjected to an austemper treatment according to claim 1 , characterized in that V-notch material has a fatigue limit of 290 MPa or more.

3. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 1 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron contains 0.1 to 0.35% by mass of Mn.

4. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 1 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a Brinell hardness of 230 to 285 HB.

5. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 2 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a Brinell hardness of 230-285 HB.

6. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 3 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a flank wear of 0.13 mm or less in a cutting distance of 1.7 km.

7. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 2 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron contains 0.1 to 0.35% by mass of Mn.

8. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 7 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a flake wear of 0.13 mm or less in a cutting distance of 1.7 km.

9. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 1 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a flank wear of 0.13 mm or less in a cutting distance of 1.7 km.

10. A non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron according to claim 2 , wherein the non-austemper-treated spheroidal graphite cast iron has a flank wear of 0.13 mm or less in a cutting distance of 1.7 km.
