Abstract: A ground engaging tooth for a ground engaging machine is disclosed. The ground engaging tooth may comprise a non-ground-engaging end, a ground-engaging end, a body extending between the non-ground-engaging end, the ground-engaging end, a top surface, a bottom surface, a left surface and a right surface. Further, the ground engaging tooth may comprise a coupling side including a pocket configured to receive a retaining device. Moreover, the ground engaging tooth may comprise a wear side including an integral-wear-insert. The integral-wear-insert may longitudinally extend along the bottom surface towards the ground-engaging end and vertically extend towards the top surface at the ground-engaging end.

Abstract: A seal ring for a seal assembly includes a body and a seal flange. The body is generally cylindrical and extends along a longitudinal axis between a load end and a seal end. The seal flange is disposed at the seal end of the cylindrical body. The seal flange circumscribes the body and projects radially from the body to a distal perimeter of the seal flange. The seal flange includes a sealing face which is annular and disposed adjacent the distal perimeter. The seal ring is made from an alloy that includes between 8 percent and 13 percent by weight of iron, between 2 percent and 3 percent by weight of silicon, between 13 percent and 14 percent by weight of chromium, and at least 65 percent by weight of nickel.

Abstract: A method to produce cast iron articles with various graphite morphologies is disclosed that provides cast iron with tailored properties at different locations of the article. Flake graphite morphology is preferably created at locations requiring excellent thermal conductivity or lubricity. Spheroidal graphite morphology is preferably created at locations requiring excellent strength or mechanical fatigue life. These methods may be particularly valuable for the production of heavy duty diesel engine components.
