1.17 Working safely with cast iron products on steam
Cast iron products are commonly found on steam and condensate systems. If installed correctly
using good steam engineering practices, it is perfectly safe. However, because of its mechanical
properties, it is less forgiving compared to other materials such as SG iron or carbon steel. The
following are the good engineering practices required to prevent waterhammer and ensure safe
working conditions on a steam system.
Safe Handling
Cast Iron is a brittle material. If the product is dropped
during installation and there is any risk of damage the

and pressure tested by the manufacturer.
