Off-road vehicles

Castings in spheroidal graphite iron (GJS) and austempered ductile iron (ADI) are largely used in the off-road vehicles sector for the manufacture of rear axles and suspension systems. The natural lightness of austempered ductile iron (ADI) as compared to steel often represents an added value in this sector.
