Abstract: Determination of(Fe,Cr)_7C_3 in Cr27 cast iron results about 30 v.-%.Minor Si and Mn are present.Sectional area of the M_7C_3 grains is 1—50μm~2.Combining matrix analysis of elec- tron diffraction pattern with calculated angle between plane traces,{011}twins and also {013}twins producing local environment for Ru_7B_3 are observed in the orthorhombic M_7C_3. A crystallographic model for M_7C_3 is proposed.

Key words: cast iron, M_7C_3, twin, plane trace, Cr 27
