The essential difference between cast iron and cast steel lies in the
Cast iron contains more than 2% Carbon. Industrial cast iron generally
contains 2%-4% of Carbon. Carbon exists with the form of graphite in the
cast iron in and sometimes exists in the form of cementite. Apart from
Phosphorus, Sulfur and other elements. Alloy cast iron also contains
and other elements. Carbon and Silicon are the main elements that
with high volume of carbon (2.7% -4.0%), mainly in the form of flake
graphite, which shortly is named as gray iron because its fracture surface
shrinkage, tensile strength and hardness close to carbon steel, with good
shock absorption. The second is white cast iron, which contains less
the impact load. The third is malleable cast iron made from white cast
Cast steel china is used for casting cast steel, a kind of cast alloy. Cast
steel is divided into cast carbon steel, casting low alloy steel and casting
special steel.
For Cast carbon steel, Carbon is the main alloying element with a small
cast steel; if containing over 0.5% of Carbon, it is high carbon cast steel.
With the increase of carbon content, the strength of cast carbon steel
increases and so does its hardness. Cast carbon steel has much higher
strength, plasticity and toughness and its cost is low so that it is widely
For low alloy cast steel, it contains Manganese, Chromium, Copper and
other alloy elements (generally less than 5%) with greater impact
Casting low-alloy steel has better usage performance than carbon steel,
which can reduce the weight of part and increase service life of parts.
