Sometimes, we call cast iron as iron casting. Cast iron parts are a kind of iron parts. We melt pig iron into hot liquid iron, and pour liquid iron into heat-resistant molds, then after cooling, we get the iron casting parts which have a certain designed shape and structure. The same method for cast steel can make steel castings.

Why do we use cast iron and cast steel?

Cast iron and cast steel can be made into certain complex shapes, and they have some good physical properties such as tensile strength, elongation, heat-resistance, wear-resistance etc. Sometimes, you can not get these metal parts by welding and forging methods. Moreover, you could make very small or very large iron and steel castings with high production rate.

What are the differences between cast iron and cast steel?

The main difference between cast steel and cast iron is the material, specifically for the carbon content. The cast iron has carbon over 2%, and cast steel has carbon lower than 2%. Of course, there are some small differences with other composition, but the carbon content is the main aspect.
