G3000 Gray Iron - School me on it
(OP)
We're going to manufacture some brake rotors here for the owners personal race car. Ive determined we're going to use G3000 cast grey iron per the SAE standard for the alloy. I have some questions regarding stress relieving.
From what I understand - you stress relieve the iron prior to machining correct?
Any other processes I should do to brake rotors?
What about cryogen? Ive heard its great and Ive heard it doesnt make a pinch of crap difference.
thanks for your help
