ISO 185 : 1988 for Gray
Cast Iron
ISO 185 is a standard for
gray cast iron. It includes the tensile
strength and hardness of gray iron. This
standard can be a good reference for
designers, buyers and suppliers to gray
iron castings.

Cross-references of ISO 185 grade
designations to other standards
Table 1 provides a selection of approximate cross-references of ISO
185 grade designations to standard grades of cast iron according to
the previous (1988) edition of ISO 185 and to standard grades from
current EN, ASTM, JIS, and SAE specifications for grey cast iron.
Because SAE specifies grey cast-iron grades by a combination of
minimum test-bar tensile-strength-to-hardness ratio and minimum
casting hardness, SAE J431 grades, in addition to those shown, may
also be produced to meet a grade specified only by tensile strength.
Because SAE hardness grades specify minimum casting hardness, a
direct correlation between SAE J431 and ISO 185 hardness grades is
not possible;
Table D.1 shows SAE grades which have minimum hardness values
approximately the same as ISO grades.
Because ISO 185:1988 hardness grades did not differentiate between
expected values for different relevant wall thickness, it is
possible that more than one of the previous ISO hardness grades may
satisfy the requirements of the current grades.
