What are the uses of cast iron?
Cast iron mainly includes grey cast iron, ductile cast iron and malleable cast iron. As for ductile iron, it has very wide application, such as Pressure pipes and fittings, Automotive applications, Agriculture, road and construction applications, General engineering applications. As for the specific application of ductile iron, grey iron and malleable cast iron, please refer to the links below.
What is color of ductile iron?
Ductile iron typically has a dark grey color, similar to that of cast iron. It may also have a slight metallic sheen when freshly cast.
Who is the Non ductile metals?
Cast iron, is one example of a non-ductile metal. Unlike ductile metals, copper, steel, aluminium - cast iron is too brittle to be reworked.
What is the difference between ductile iron and malleable iron?
Malleable cannot be broken like a cast fitting can be and normally malleable fittings / pipe do not have a seam +++ Its full name is Malleable CAST Iron - it is cast as "ordinary" cast-iron but is a lot less brittle. It is an important material combining some of the properties of cast-iron with those of mild-steel.
What are the different materials used for making pipes?
Well . . . there is cast iron, ductile iron, steel, copper, galvanized steel, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglas . . .

How can you tell if a pipe fitting is cast or ductile iron?
Hit it with a sledge hammer.
What are the properties of cast irons?
Mechanical Properties of Ductile Iron. Ductile iron is characterized by having all of its graphite occur in microscopic spheroidsCast iron is formed by remelting pig iron, and is useful for a variety of engineering purposes.Properties and Uses of Iron. Iron is one of the three magnetic elements (the others are cobalt and nickel). Cast iron is very brittle (it cracks easily
Which is most ductile material gold or steel or cast iron or aluminium?
Mild steel
Is ductile iron generally conductive?
Yes, ductile iron is conductive. Its electrical conductivity is similar to that of gray cast iron due to the presence of graphite in its microstructure. This makes it a good choice for applications where electrical conductivity is required.
What is the colour of iron after rusting?
As for the most of rough surfaces of cast iron, the color is grey. Such as normal grey cast iron and ductile iron. The ductile iron will be more white than grey cast iron. There are few types of vermicular cast iron, which are black. The white cast iron will show white color. So, cast iron has different color, such as grey, black, white according to different types. However, most of cast iron castings need surface coating, such as painting or electroplate, so they will show different colors than their own.
What is the the advantage of gray and white cast iron over malleable and ductile cast iron?
Gray iron with small amounts of magnesium and cesium which nodulates the graphite, resultinghigh strengthhigh ductilityWhite cast iron heat-treated to improvehigher ductility
