Welding mild steel and cast steel (iron?)?

1 个回答 悬赏0分 距离有效期还有 0 天

i was wondering how strong of a bond it would be if i welded mild steel to a cast spindle for a truck. im not sure if its "cast iron" or if its more of a steel alloy just in a cast form. is there a difference or is it all just called "cast iron"? i have already welded it with my mig welder and it seems very secure. i was just looking for input before the "wait n see"

    If you ever weld on cast iron, in the manner you described, you would produce White C.I. in the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). That, my friend, would be a disaster in the making. The majority of vehicle spindles are made from drop forged steel. None are ever made of C.I. If you look at any finished hot forging product you will see the 'witness' of the parting line. These parts are made from a top and bottom die which mate together in a press, with the 2350 deg. F. steel forged between them. The excess steel squeezes out and creates 'flashing', or simply, the 'flash'. This flashing gets trimmed off and leaves a thin line of metal all he way around the part. I have welded many spindles onto axles made of pipe, I-beams, etc. I have used E7018, Dual shield II, and solid mig wire. They all work fabulously on steel forgings. The heat of the arc will promote grain growth in the HAZ, which will slightly weaken the forging properties. but if you use proper welding procedures, you should have no problems with the weld ever breaking.
