Materials
At Funosa we produce both grey and nodular iron grades, according to standards EN-1561 and EN-1563, respectively.
Grey iron
Grey iron, is a type of cast iron that has a graphitic microstructure. It is named after the grey colour of the fracture it forms, which is due to the presence of graphite.
We produce the following iron grades
Designation EN-1561 |
Tensile Strength (Mpa) |
| EN-GJL-150 | 150 |
| EN-GJL-200 | 200 |
| EN-GJL-250 | 250 |
| EN-GJL-300 | 300 |
Ductile Iron
Ductile Iron is a type of cast iron known for its impact and fatigue resistance, elongation, and wear resistance due to the spherical (round) graphite structures in the metal. Ductile Iron is also called ductile cast iron, spheroidal graphite cast iron, or nodular cast iron.
We produce the following iron grades
