Malleable Cast Iron Threaded Fittings

Properties and application areas of malleable cast iron threaded fittings

The malleable cast iron threaded fittings are composed of a special type of cast iron made from an iron-carbon-silicon alloy and a steel structure. Malleable cast iron solidifies graphite-free. Only after subsequent heat treatment does the mass release graphite from the decomposing cementite. The long-lasting annealing process is called tempering, from which the term malleable cast iron is derived. Generally, we distinguish between black and white malleable cast iron. Due to the material's prolonged exposure to high heat, it is extremely stable and particularly impact-resistant. In its liquid state, the iron mix can be easily cast, making it suitable for small or thin-walled workpieces. At the same time, it is easy to machine, corrosion-resistant, and has excellent welding behavior. This makes the practical components from the Online-Shop ideal for use in heating systems, water pipes, compressed air systems, and even gas installations. Thanks to its elegant appearance, you can quickly adorn industrial-style pipe furniture or visually enhance exposed water pipes.
