Atlas Bronze has established itself as a leading distributor of Bronze, Copper Alloy, & Iron products, as well as self lubricated bushings and sintered bronze products, in the United States. Situated in the heart of New Jersey, the Company is well positioned to serve the East Coast, the Northeast, & the Nation with its comprehensive product line of Bronze, Iron, & Copper Alloys.
The company was founded in 1995 by Thomas Smith, formerly of Federal Bronze Products. Through his vision & experience, Atlas has embraced the motto "helping our customers". It was his goal to provide the service of a small business with the low pricing of the "big guys". Continually striving for perfection, the company's highly skilled & professional sales staff move forward to that end, providing quality material at competitive prices.
All stocked materials are offered in Solid Diameters, Cored Bar, Plate, & Rectangle Block. Additionally, materials can be cut per the customer's exact requirements on one of Atlas's five in house saws. We at Atlas look forward to being the supplier that you can trust to get the job done right, for the best price possible.

General Description:
65-45-12 Ductile Iron
Dura-Bar 65-45-12 ductile iron contains nodular graphite in a matrix of ferrite with small amounts of pearlite. The ferritic structure gives excellent machinability with good surface finishes along with optimal impact strengths, fatigue properties, electrical conductivity and high magnetic permeability. This iron has approximately the same tensile and yield strengths as AISI 1020 steel in the as-rolled condition. This specification conforms to ASTM A536 grade 65-45-12.

FlakeNodular
Ferritic Pearlitic
Dura-Bar 65-45-12 can be oil quench hardened from 1600° F (885° C) to Rockwell C 50 minimum on the outside of the bar. Hardness in the core will be less than the hardness on the outside surfaces. Typical jominy end quench test data are shown in the section on Heat Treating.
This grade also responds well to surface hardening methods such as flame or induction heat treating. It is well suited for austempering because of the low residual alloy content, and the highly ferritic matrix provides predictable growth with minimal heat-distortion.
The microstructure consists of Types I & II nodular graphite as defined in ASTM A247. The matrix is ferrite with approximately 5-25% pearlite. The "rim" will have a higher nodular count and will be mostly ferrite. Chill carbides will be less than 5% in any field at 100x and will be well dispersed.
