Iron Casting Manufacturer for Grey Iron & Ductile Iron Components

As a professional iron casting manufacturer, we produce grey iron and ductile iron castings for machinery, automotive, agricultural, and hydraulic applications. Our iron casting solutions deliver excellent wear resistance, stability, and cost efficiency for OEM customers worldwide.
What Is Iron Casting?
Iron casting is a manufacturing process in which molten iron is poured into molds to create components with excellent castability, vibration damping, wear resistance, and dimensional stability.
Due to its superior machinability and cost-efficiency, iron casting remains one of the most widely used metal-forming processes in automotive, machinery, pumps & valves, industrial equipment, hydraulics, and power transmission systems.
Our foundry specializes in both Gray Iron and Ductile Iron, enabling us to supply components ranging from lightweight housings to heavy-duty structural castings with exceptional mechanical performance.
Performance Characteristics of Cast Iron
Different grades of cast iron deliver unique mechanical and physical properties:

Excellent Castability

Low melting temperature and superior fluidity allow complex geometries and detailed shapes to be cast with high dimensional accuracy.

Superior Vibration Damping

Cast iron absorbs shock and vibration significantly better than steel, making it ideal for machine tool bases, engines, and pump components.

High Wear Resistance

The graphite structure provides natural lubricity, extending service life in sliding or abrasive environments.

Good Thermal Conductivity

Important for components requiring heat dissipation, such as engines and brake systems.

Cost-Effective for Large Volumes

Cast iron is economical for medium to large-scale production while maintaining stable quality.

Excellent Machinability

Graphite inclusions reduce cutting forces, lower tool wear, and ensure smooth machining.

Advantages of Iron Castings
Iron castings are preferred across many industries due to their balance of performance and cost:

Highly Economical Material Choice

Lower material cost and excellent processing efficiency.

High Structural Stability

Ideal for precision bases and heavy equipment requiring minimum deformation.

Versatility Across Applications

Supports both high-strength applications (ductile iron) and high-damping needs (gray iron).

Design Freedom

Complex shapes and large parts can be cast more easily than steel or aluminum.
Types of Iron Castings
We support a wide range of steel casting methods and material configurations: By Casting Method

Gray Iron Casting

Known for its flake graphite structure, gray iron offers:
• Excellent vibration damping
• High thermal conductivity
• Good wear properties
• Easy machining
Typical grades: HT150 / HT200 / HT250 / HT300 / ASTM A48 Class 20–40
Applications: machine tool beds, gearboxes, pump housings, brake discs, manifolds.

Ductile Iron Casting

With nodular graphite, ductile iron delivers:
• High tensile & yield strength
• Excellent impact toughness
• Good fatigue resistance
• Strong weldability
Typical grades: QT400-18 / QT450-10 / QT500-7 / QT600-3 / ASTM A536 Grades 60-40-18 to 100-70-03
Applications: automotive components, heavy machinery parts, hydraulic fittings, pressure pipes, construction hardware.
