Our pure iron is a consistent material with a known specification. It is
manufactured to exacting standards in the UK and is a minimum 99.8% pure. |
The UTS of pure iron is
between 15 and 24 tons per square inch (230-370N/mm2) which is
similar to that of new high-grade wrought iron. There is little
difference between the two materials other than the fact that pure iron does not
contain any slag or laminations and has superior corrosion resistance.
The following represents a
typical analysis of our pure iron.
