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.
Andrew Martin Scott has written: 'Ductile iron jacking pipes'
K9 and C-type ductile iron pipes differ primarily in their application and strength characteristics. K9 pipes are designed for use in water supply systems, offering a thicker wall for enhanced durability and pressure resistance, making them suitable for higher pressure applications. In contrast, C-type ductile iron pipes have a standard thickness and are typically used for general water distribution. The key distinction lies in the K9's increased wall thickness, allowing it to handle more demanding conditions compared to C-type pipes.
Well . . . there is cast iron, ductile iron, steel, copper, galvanized steel, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglas . . .
yes malleable is very ductile
These days PVC pipes are faster and easier to fit and in many ways more efficient than cast iron.
