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 0.00170344 t per cup (US).
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
