Description

An economical low ash material with excellent thermal shock resistance,Advanced Graphite Materials LLC’s GRAFSTAR PGW graphite is well suited for the fine machining detail required in molds for casting metal shapes. Grade PGW graphite is a molded version of grade CBY™ graphite with excellent internal structure.

This material data has been provided by Advanced Graphite Materials.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
