Shandong Zhihua Pipe Industry Co., Ltd.
We’re a professional grooved pipe fitting supplier in China and guarantee the quality of our products because our material is high grade ductile iron. So today we focus on ductile iron. As known as nodular cast iron, is made by adding a small amount of magnesium to the molten iron. This process creates graphite nodules that give ductile iron its unique properties.
1.Ductile iron is stronger and more durable than normal iron, thanks to its nodular graphite structure. This makes it an ideal choice for applications with critical strength and resistance to wear and tear, such as automotive parts, pipes.
2.Ductile iron can be machined satisfactorily if the cutting tools are correctly chosen and used. Machinists will typically use carbide or cermet-tipped cutting tools as these materials can withstand the high temperatures and pressures associated with machining ductile iron.
3.Ductile iron has higher corrosion resistance, making it ideal for applications exposed to harsh environments, such as marine applications, chemical processing, and oil and gas industries.
4.In terms of cost, ductile iron’s superior performance and durability often justify its higher price tag, especially for critical applications where long-lasting performance is essential.
In summary, ductile iron is a kind of material with high strength, high durability, high precision and competitive price . Our pipe fittings are made of high-grade ductile iron, to ensure reliable and durable in use, trust our groove pipe fittings!
