A decisive advance was made in 1948, when research led to the discovery of spheroidal graphite iron, more commonly known as ductile iron. The graphite no longer exists in flake form but precipitates in a spherical form. The possibility of crack propagation lines is therefore eliminated. Graphite precipitation in spheroidal form is obtained by the controlled addition of small amount of magnesium to the previously desulfurized base iron. Within the last fifty years ductile iron as an important material has been used in producing wide varieties of products as pipes, fittings, valves, manhole covers ....etc.

Ductile iron owes its remarkable mechanical properties to the spheroidal shape of its graphite.

- Tensile strength.
- Impact resistance.

Ductile Iron Pipe is suitable for mounting under the different topography and climate situation. Ductile iron pipes are produced according to the following International Standards:

Note: ISO (International Organization for Standardization). DIN (German Standard - Deutsche Institute for Normung) BS (British Standard) EN (European Standard)

This International Standard specifies the requirements and test methods applicable to ductile iron pipes, fittings, accessories and their joints for the construction of pipelines.

- to convey water (e.g. potable water) or gas;
- operated with or without pressure;
- installed below or above ground.
Note: In this international standard, all pressures are relative pressure expressed in bars.(100Kpa = 1 bar)

This International Standard gives specifications for materials, dimensions and tolerance, mechanical properties and standard coatings of pipes, fittings and accessories. It also

- High elastic limit (yield strength).
- Good elongation.

These properties are further enhanced by control of the chemical analysis and heat treatment of the metal matrix.
Ductile iron maintains the traditional qualities of cast iron resulting from the high carbon content.
- Compression strength.
- Castability.
- Abrasion resistance.
- Machinability.
- Fatigue strength.

Ductile iron pipes which can convey many fluid media such as water, gas, are widely used in various pipeline projects for metallurgy, mine, water conservancy, petroleum and urban public facilities
