Analysis of Tensile Strength Properties for FG260 Welded Cast Iron: A Review
Abstract: Gray cast iron is the most common cast iron and it can be effectively welded if cooling rates controlled during welding and after welding. Poor weldability of gray cast iron is due to the presence of much more carbon that is the found in flake or spherical form and silicon than other ferrous metal which results in cast iron is less ductile hence weld is subjected to more metallurgical complications …
