Cast iron is the most common material used in the manufacture of cylinder liners sleeves.
Not only does it contain graphite which serves as a flawless lubricant, but also dampens piston seizures due to its porous surface.
The advantages of gray cast iron over aluminum are the cost, wear resistance, strain-stress tolerance, castability, corrosion resistance in aqueous coolant systems, damping characteristics, and commercial considerations.
For big quantity, the centrifugal casting will be the choice to get good quality and fast production. Sand casting is suitable for small quantity.
Ductile iron is the preferred material for high-performance engine sleeve applications due to its improved tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation.
