Carbon represents the total carbon in the listed composition. Cerium is an optional constituent in ductile iron. Most ductile irons are specified based on mechanical properties and have loosely defined compositions. For example, 65-45-12 ductile iron is specified to have a minimum tensile strength of 65 ksi (448 MPa), a yield strength of 45 ksi (310 MPa) and an elongation of 12%. Mostly ferritic, as cast or annealed. Applications include machine components subject to shock and fatigue loads.
