Alloy Steel Sand Castings

Structural Characteristics of Alloy Steel Castings

• • The minimum wall thickness of steel castings should be greater than the minimum wall thickness of gray cast iron. It is not suitable to design too complex castings
• • Steel castings have relatively large internal stress and are easy to bend and deform
• • The structure should minimize hot nodes and conditions for sequential solidification should be created
• • The fillet of the connecting wall and the transition section of different thickness are larger than those of cast iron
• • Complicated castings can be designed into a casting + welding structure to facilitate casting production
