Gray Iron Advantages:

Resistance to cracking
High temperature properties
Inexpensive to produce and to finish
Produces repeatable metal products
Offers castings with significant cast-in features and details

Ductile Iron

Ductile Iron offers the castability, machinability, and corrosion resistance of gray iron while adding the high strength, ductility, and hardening ability of steel. Their ductile iron castings are well known throughout the industry for high-impact resistance and a high modulus of elasticity and strength, resulting in heavier load capacity with less deflection.

12. Winnebago foundry

Winnebago is a jobbing foundry producing gray and ductile iron castings from ounces to 3000 lb. They pour gray iron in Class 20, 30 & 40 and ductile irons 60-40-18, 65-45-12, 80-55-06 and 100-70-03. We can produce high silicon, molybdenum alloyed ductile irons such as Cat 1E1299 and offer some specialty irons such as Hi-Sil Moly ductile iron.

A brief overview of what they offer:
Ductile iron

Replace multiple component assemblies with a single ductile iron casting,
improving machine reliability and strength at a lower cost.

Gray iron

Also known as “cast iron”, gray iron is suited for a variety of industries ,including, heavy, machinery, gray iron valves and transportation.
