What is the difference between Cast Iron and Wrought Iron?
Cast iron is formed by pouring molten iron into a mold which was formed by pressing a carved pattern into casting sand. Wrought iron is also called forged iron. It is the process of taking a bar of preformed metal such as round, square or flat bars, then heating it and working the hot metal by hand under the hammer and over an anvil and with various tools. Wiemann Metalcraft utilizes both methods in many alloys of metals to achieve the final finished product.
