ADI Gearbox Housing Tensile Strength Of 750 MPa, Elongation Of 11%

Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) technology has become increasingly popular in various industries due to its unique combination of mechanical properties, including high strength, ductility, and wear resistance. This material is particularly suitable for applications requiring both high performance and cost-effectiveness. The following sectors are among the heavy users of ADI technology:

Construction and Mining Equipment
Material Handling
AG Implement and Equipment
Automotive
Heavy Truck
Railroad

Typical Applications
Timing Gears
Timing gears are critical components in engines, ensuring the precise timing of various mechanical operations. ADI's high strength and fatigue resistance make it an ideal material for these gears, ensuring reliability and longevity under high loads and speeds.

CV Joints
Constant Velocity (CV) joints are essential in transmitting power from the engine to the wheels in vehicles with front-wheel drive. ADI's superior wear resistance and toughness contribute to the durability and smooth operation of CV joints, even under challenging driving conditions.

Steering Knuckles
Steering knuckles are pivotal components in vehicle steering systems, connecting the wheel to the steering system. ADI castings offer the necessary strength and wear resistance for these components, ensuring precise and reliable steering control.

Sprockets, Rollers, Idlers
In material handling and conveyor systems, sprockets, rollers, and idlers are subjected to continuous wear and tear. ADI's wear resistance and self-lubricating properties reduce maintenance requirements and extend the lifespan of these components.

Suspension Housings and Brackets
Suspension housings and brackets in automotive and heavy truck applications must withstand significant stresses and vibrations. ADI's high strength and damping capabilities make it an excellent choice for these components, enhancing overall ride comfort and stability.

Wear Plates
Wear plates in construction and mining equipment are exposed to extreme abrasion. ADI's ability to resist wear makes it a preferred material for these applications, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Wheel Hubs
Wheel hubs are critical components in the rotation of wheels in automobiles and heavy trucks. ADI's strength and fatigue resistance ensure the reliable functioning of wheel hubs under varying load conditions.

Control Arms
Control arms in automotive suspension systems are responsible for maintaining wheel alignment and absorbing road shocks. ADI's combination of strength and toughness provides the necessary resilience for these components, contributing to a smoother ride.

Plow Points
Plow points in agricultural equipment are subjected to intense wear during soil tillage. ADI's wear resistance and impact toughness make it an ideal material for plow points, ensuring efficient and durable performance.
