A casting defect is an undesired irregularity in a metal casting process. Some defects can be tolerated while others can be repaired, otherwise they must be eliminated. They are broken down into five main categories: gas porosity, shrinkage defects, mould material defects, pouring metal defects, and metallurgical defects.
The gauge and cold junction are usually calibrated at room temperature, 72 °F (22 °C). Because the thermocouple is calibrated for room temperature, the gauge readings will only be 100% accurate at that engine compartment temperature. If the engine compartment temperature is colder, the CHT temperature will display higher.
Temperature: Gas, Regulo Mark 7". "Regulo" was a type of gas regulator used by a manufacturer of cookers; however, the scale has now become universal, and the word Regulo is rarely used. The term "gas mark" was a subject of the joint BBC / OED production Balderdash and Piffle , in May 2005.
Visions – a brand of transparent stove top cookware originally created by Corning France and released in Europe during the late 1970s and in other markets beginning a short time later. West Bend Company; Wonder Pot – an Israeli invention for baking on top of a gas stove rather than in an oven. It consists of three parts: an aluminium pot ...
Class 20 has a high carbon equivalent and a ferrite matrix. Higher strength gray irons, up to class 40, have lower carbon equivalents and a pearlite matrix. Gray iron above class 40 requires alloying to provide solid solution strengthening , and heat treating is used to modify the matrix.
Steel castings are used when iron castings cannot deliver enough strength or shock resistance. [1] Examples of items that are steel castings include: hydroelectric turbine wheels, forging presses, gears, railroad truck frames, valve bodies, pump casings, mining machinery, marine equipment, turbocharger turbines and engine cylinder blocks.

In sizes of up to 6 m (20 ft) diameter and 15 m (49 ft) length. With a wall thickness range from 2.5 to 125 mm (0.098 to 4.921 in). In tolerance limits of the outer diameter of 2.5 mm (0.098 in) an die inner diameter of 3.8 mm (0.15 in). In a surface finish from 2.5 to 12.5 mm (0.098 to 0.492 in) rms.
A high pouring temperature can also induce shrinkage problems and create longer cycle times. If the mold temperature is too low misruns are produced, but if the mold temperature is too high then the cycle time is prolonged and mold erosion is increased. Large differences in section thickness in the mold or casting can decrease mold life as well.
