What is Iron Act?

The Iron Act, enacted in 1750 by the British Parliament, aimed to protect British iron production by restricting the manufacturing of iron goods in the American colonies. It allowed the colonies to produce pig iron and bar iron but prohibited the construction of iron mills and forges. This legislation was part of a broader mercantilist policy to control colonial trade and production, ensuring that raw materials were sent to Britain for processing. Ultimately, the Iron Act limited the economic development of the colonies in the iron industry.
