Many ferrous metal alloys are hot forged because their crystalline structure gives the best results for the product being made when the forging is done hot. Some of these alloys are so hard when cool that cold forging is out of the question
Ferrous sulfate is used to treat iron deficiency anemia
Ferrous sulfate is commonly used in iron supplements to treat or prevent iron deficiency anemia. It helps the body produce red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. Ferrous sulfate can also be used as a nutritional supplement in animal feed.
Forged fittings are pressed into shape while the metal is hot and generally have higher pressure ratings. Cast fittings are formed by pouring molten metal into a form and general have lower pressure capacity when compared to forged fittings.
No machining is advisable when material to be machined is red hot rather it can be forged, extruded. Primary machining only is normally advisable when material is red hot.
The term "drop forged" is referring to the process in which super-heated steel is formed into items such as tools etc. More particularly, it accurately describes the motion of "dropping" a hammer onto the hot steel.
Forged steel is metallurgically worked, ususlly hot, to a smaller size than the cast/ingot size. Cast steel is the product of pouring molten steel into a mold, usually to the final usuable size.
Hot fluid dissolves materials and adds other materials :)
Sound waves generally travel faster through hot materials compared to cold materials because the molecules in hot materials are more energetic and can transmit vibrations more quickly. Cold materials have slower molecular movement, which can hinder the speed at which sound waves travel.
Zinc is a non-ferrous metal that is brittle at room temperature and softens upon heating. It has a low melting point and can become malleable when heated, making it suitable for certain types of metalworking processes such as die-casting and hot-dipping.
Two materials that do not get hot easily are stone (such as granite or marble) and glass. These materials have high thermal mass, meaning they can absorb heat without getting hot quickly.

Materials that can absorb heat without becoming hot are known as insulators. These materials have low thermal conductivity, which means they do not easily transfer heat. Examples of insulating materials include wood, plastic, and fiberglass.
