Which of the following materials is not suitable for centrifugal castings? 1. Brass 2. Aluminum 3. Steel 4. Magnesium

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Answer: B

Magnesium is generally not suitable for conventional centrifugal casting because molten magnesium is highly reactive and poses a significant fire and oxidation risk when handled in open molten form; special process controls are required and centrifugal casting is not commonly used for magnesium alloys.

Brass, Aluminum and Steel are commonly used successfully in centrifugal casting. The process is well suited to metals and alloys with adequate fluidity and where the centrifugal force helps produce dense, sound cylindrical or tubular castings.

Therefore, only option 4 (Magnesium) is unsuitable in the standard centrifugal casting practice; the correct choice is B (4 only).
