This specialty handbook covers the entire spectrum of case irons. Includes basic information on metallurgy, solidification characteristics, and properties, as well as extensive reviews on the low-alloy gray, ductile, compacted graphite, and malleable irons. 

New and expanded material has been added covering high-alloy white irons used for abrasion resistance, and high-alloy graphitic irons for heat and corrosion resistance. Melting and foundry practices and more are discussed.
