Spool – Rotary Hydraulic Industry Fluid Power Dura-Bar Grade 65-45-12 Ductile Iron Original Material Carbon Steel Problems Solved Machining Cycle Time, Wear Resistance, Cost Reduction A spool used in a rotary hydraulic manifold was previously made of carbon steel. The manufacturer needed to find a way to reduce costs and considered other materials. The amount machining and number of operations required for the part made Dura-Bar a perfect candidate. The manufacturer switched to Dura-Bar 65-45-12 ductile iron and significantly reduced machining cycle times, and also benefitted from better wear resistance. The cost reduction goal was met.
