This paper was undertaken to study the material composition and wear characteristics of austempered ductile iron third edition (ADI 3rd edition) rotavator blades which were developed by austempering heat process done over cast iron. The objective was carried out by means of elemental analysis and identification of wear pattern of rotavator blades with increase in operational time. The results indicated that the change in material composition responsible for wear characteristics of blades. | Wear characteristics and material composition of austempered ductile iron Fe C rotavator blades
