GJS-400-15 — ASTM Equivalent

Holding a datasheet that specifies GJS-400-15 (ISO 1083)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.

What is the ASTM equivalent of GJS-400-15?

GJS-400-15 is a ISO 1083 designation corresponding to ASTM A395 / ISO 1083 GGG-40 (Ductile Iron (Nodular Cast Iron)) for industrial valve service. The full grade data is below - equivalence is by nominal chemistry and mechanical class, so confirm composition and heat-treat condition against the governing standard before substituting in critical service.
