and truly hope these information could help buyers to better understand some technical issues related with iron and steel castings.

  1. Cast Iron Ductile Iron - on Dec 31, 2010
    Some buyers may wonder the relations of cast iron and ductile iron. So, what is cast iron? Cast iron should be a kind of metal, or specific iron casting part. Iron foundry melts the pig iron into hot liquid iron, and pour it into various heat-resistant molds, then get cast iron parts, or called iron castings.
