The wear resistance of three different types of gray cast iron (gray iron grade 250, high-carbon gray iron and titanium alloyed gray iron), used in brake disc rotors, was studied and compared with the results obtained with a compact graphite iron (CGI). The wear tests were carried out in a pin-on-disc wear-testing machine, the pin being manufactured from friction material usually used in light truck brake pads. The rotating discs (500 rpm) were subjected to cyclical pressures of 0.7, 2 and 4 MPa and forced cooled.The wear was measured by weighing discs and pads before and after the test. The operating temperatures and friction forces were also monitored during each test.The results showed that compact graphite iron reached higher maximum temperatures and friction forces as well as greater mass losses than the three gray irons at any pressure applied. However, when compact graphite iron was tested with lower applied pressures and same friction forces sustained by the gray iron rotors, CGI presented the same performance, as did the gray cast iron.

“…Vermicular graphite, present in compact graphite iron (CGI), is also interconnected and results in mechanical and thermal properties between those of gray iron and ductile iron (DI), in which spherical graphite particles are isolated from one another. Due to these properties, CGI is being considered for applications associated with complex states of mechanical and thermal stresses, such as those found in braking systems [1][2][3][4]. Along with the mechanical loads, the material used in brake rotors should be able to bear thermal fatigue and to quickly absorb and dissipate the heat generated during braking [1][2][3].…”

“…Ductile iron, which contains soft graphite nodules either in as-cast condition or as an ADI (Austempered Ductile Iron), can also be considered as PMMC. In general, the composite with soft particles is much less common, but is finding increased usage, due to its combination with mechanical and technological properties (Pye, 1982;He et al, 1997;Dryden et al, 1987). In ADI, tensile properties as well as toughness are similar to some types of medium strength steels, combined with notable technological benefits, lowering the production cost by increased castability.…”
