If the pipe is No Hub cast Iron you can use a mission cap If the cast Iron is bell then you caulk in a cast iron plug If the cast iron is a spigot end you get a transition coupling either standard weight CI or extra heavy and then use a cast iron cap in the transition coupling

no cement can not rust unless you add some type of iron or material that can oxidize into it
Iron is only in some cements used for certain things. Putting iron in the cement makes it stronger, which is why it is only needed for things that need extra strength, such as steam engines.

The uses of an iron oxide in cement is to add color and and to give?æhardness and strength. It also helps in the fusion of raw materials during production.
