Malleable Cast Iron definition:
From Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia (2008)
Malleable iron is the oldest member of the
family of nodular irons. Like all nodular irons, malleable
iron exhibits good ductility. Incorrectly considered
by some to be an "old" or "dead" material,
malleable iron still has a legitimate place
in the design engineer's toolbar. Malleable
is the iron of choice for small castings
or castings with thin cross sections (less
than .25"). Other nodular irons tend to be difficult to
produce in these applications. Malleable iron
is also preferred for castings seeing duty
in low temperature environments since it retains its ductility
better than other nodular irons at low temperatures. Used for
small castings requiring good tensile strength
and the ability to flex without breaking (ductility). Electrical

fittings, power line hardware, farm equipment, mining hardware,
and machine parts.
