    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines a material designation system for cast iron either by symbols or numbers. Applicable only to standardized cast iron materials.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard establishes a material designation system either by symbols or by numbers for cast iron. The designation system by symbols is applicable to: standardized cast iron materials (see 2.1) non-standardized cast iron materials (see 2.2). The designation system by numbers is only applicable to standardized cast iron materials (see 2.1). NOTE The use of a designation system by symbols does not necessarily imply that the material is standardized.
