Malleable cannot be broken like a cast fitting can be and normally malleable fittings / pipe do not have a seam

Why is iron considered ductile and malleable?

Iron is considered ductile because it can be drawn into wires without breaking. It is considered malleable because it can be hammered or rolled into thin sheets without breaking. Both of these properties are due to the metallic bonding in iron, which allows its atoms to be rearranged without breaking bonds.
