DUCTILE IRON

Tests by ERICO indicate that connections to most ductile iron pipe can be made using the CADWELD molds and weld metal designated to be used on steel pipe.

However, some reports from the field suggest that all ductile iron is not the same. In such cases, the molds and weld material for cast iron do work. We therefore suggest:
  1. Whenever possible, make tests on the ductile iron pipe being used to determine if the material for steel can be used.- OR -
  2. Use the molds and weld metal designed for cast iron. It will make satisfactory connections on all ductile iron.
