What’s Malleable Cast Iron?

Malleable cast iron is made by smelting scrap steel and cast iron, then controlling the cooling for many hours. Annealing turns white iron castings into malleable iron. ISO 5922-2005 classifies malleable iron by type, tensile strength, and ductility. Iron is the second most common metal on earth. It’s used to make everything from the hulls […]

What’s Malleable Cast Iron?

Malleable cast iron is made by smelting scrap steel and cast iron and carefully controlling the cooling process. It is created through annealing and can be either white-heart or black-heart iron. The ISO has a classification system for malleable iron based on tensile strength and ductility. Iron is the second most common metal on earth. […]
