About ductile iron

Ductile Iron is a kind of cast iron, which is renowned for several properties. For instance, ductile iron has superior impact and fatigue resistance, in addition to elongation, and wear resistance in comparison to cast iron. This is due to the presence of spherical or round graphite structures seen at a microscopical level in the Ductile Iron Pipe Fittings. This is also why ductile iron is referred to as spheroidal graphite iron or nodular iron names. As a result of a higher content of carbon in the metal, the Ductile Iron Water Pipe Fittings retains the traditional qualities of cast iron such as high compression strength, abrasion resistance, cast ability, as well as machinability.
