This paper discusses current 2003 industry applications and uses for Austempered Ductile Iron
Read More >Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) is a specialty heat treated material that takes advantage of the near-net shape technology and low cost manufacturability of ductile iron castings to make a high strength, low cost, excellent abrasion-resistant material. Six grades of ADI are available to address property combinations of high strength, abrasion resistance and toughness for converting from costly forgings, weldments and assemblies.
Several developments have occurred in the past few years regarding the use of austempering applications in the agricultural industry.
