The effect of modulus and section shape on quenching hardness of circle and square shape ductile cast iron bars was study. The specimens were water quenched after austenitized at 900 °C for 60 min, then the Rockwell hardness at the center and surface of section at half length of bar were measured. The results show that the quenching hardness decreased with increasing in modulus of specimen. The change in hardness due to change in section shape was not obviously. The approximately equal hardness could be obtained under the same modulus of circle and square shape ductile cast iron bars.
