Methodology
Cast Iron density and calculation basis
Evidence status: publishable.
Representative gray cast iron density; ductile iron and other grades differ.
grade: Dura-Bar gray cast iron
Source basis: Dura-Bar, Density technical brief, 02/2019. Technical brief: gray iron versus ductile iron density. https://www.dura-bar.com/getmedia/811341e6-6541-48f9-b719-1d1d666a2bc8/dura-bar-density-0219.pdf?ext=.pdf Applicability: adopted-context.
Ductile iron has a separate 0.255 lb/in³ value; temperature not stated.
For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.00011736 ton (US) per tbsp (US).
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
