Cast iron pipes are durable piping solutions made from molten iron that is poured into molds and allowed to solidify. This material is known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and high compressive strength, making it suitable for various applications. Cast iron pipes are typically used in plumbing, drainage, and sewage systems due to their ability to withstand high pressure and temperature variations.
