DIN 1693 1997 Standard
for Ductile Iron
This is a Germany standard for stipulating the
physical properties of ductile iron.
Many iron foundries in China could
understand this standard very well. This standard is
similar with the other standards for
nodular iron such as
ASTM A536
in USA, GB
T1348 in China,
KS D4302
in Korea and
ISO 1083.
The following is the main content of DIN
1693-1997 standard for your reference.
