2025-06-23

Careful friends will find that there are many, many people, but the details are not known, only that they are made of cast iron. In fact, there are many kinds of casting materials in life, such as white grey iron castings (traditional cooking big iron pots, bicycle bells, etc.), ordinary grey iron castings (sewing machines, door locks, liquefied gas stove covers, etc.), and many more grey iron castings of this kind, such as various agricultural machinery and tools from rural manufacturers.Common iron casting products in daily life are relatively low in appearance, size, and material requirements, and the casting threshold is also very low.

At the end of the Republic of China, early folk craftsmen were seen casting these commonly used castings with simple smelting equipment through the streets and alleys to maintain daily life. After the rapid growth of the domestic economy following the reform and opening up, the foundry industry rose, with foundries springing up, and these commonly used grey iron castings began to be mass-produced, which has improved product quality and reduced production costs.

This has led to more grey iron casting products being used by the common people.At present, the common sewage manhole covers and power manhole covers in the streets and alleys of the city are also casting products, but this kind of casting is ductile iron due to its special use.


Most of the manhole covers of various well rings made of ductile iron worldwide are exported and sold in China.With the improvement of people's living standards and the pursuit of a quality life, various grey iron casting products have come out relatively well. For example, wrought iron products can be seen in many public places. For instance, the fence of the villa area uses wrought iron fences, and wrought iron castings are seen for animals in parks, people, and others. With the development of culture and civilisation, the sales of high-end products such as cast iron teapots and cast iron fireplaces used in modern life also have a certain market share.
