Founding - Malleable cast irons; German version EN 1562:2012
This European Standard defines grades and the corresponding requirements for malleable cast irons. This European standard specifies the grades of two groups of material, namely whiteheart malleable cast iron and blackheart malleable cast iron, based on mechanical properties measured on cast samples (which are test pieces). Each group is represented by several grades of material. This standard specifies Brinell hardness values determined only when these values are requested by the purchaser. This standard does not cover technical delivery conditions for malleable cast iron castings. Reference should be made to EN 1559 1 and EN 1559 3. This standard does not cover chemical composition, except phosphorous (see Clause 6).
