A tough, malleable, ductile form of iron that is not cast, suitable for welding
Iron worked into shape by manual effort; used for balcony railings, fences, gates, hardware, lanterns, etc
Iron with a low carbon content that can be forged and welded Wrought iron is formed by heating and beating steel This term is also used to describe a style of furniture and/or metalwork Wrought iron is no longer in wide production, and most items that are termed wrought iron are actually mild steel
A commercial form of iron which is tough, malleable, and relatively soft
(Bar iron) Tough, malleable and fibrous iron produced from hammering iron blooms Wrought iron can be bent and hammered Items like swords, plow blades and door hindges are made from wrought iron
commercial iron that contains less than 0 3% carbon and 1 0 or 2 0% slag, giving it ductility and toughness
iron having a low carbon content that is tough and malleable and so can be forged and welded
Wrought iron is a type of iron that is easily formed into shapes and is used especially for making gates, fences, and furniture. An easily welded and forged iron that is a mechanical mixture of refined metallic iron with 1 to 3 percent siliceous slag. long thin pieces of iron formed into shapes to make gates, fences etc. One of the two forms in which iron is obtained by smelting. Wrought iron is a soft, easily worked, fibrous metal. It usually contains less than 0.1% carbon and 1-2% slag. It is superior for most purposes to cast iron, which is hard and brittle because of its higher carbon content. In antiquity, iron was smelted directly by heating ore in a forge with charcoal, which served both as fuel and reducing agent. While still hot, the iron-and-slag mixture was removed as a lump and worked (wrought) with a hammer to expel most of the slag and weld the iron into a coherent mass. Wrought iron began to take the place of bronze (being far more available) in Asia Minor in the 2nd millennium BC; its use for tools and weapons was established in China, India, and the Mediterranean by the 3rd century BC. Later, in Europe, wrought iron was produced indirectly from cast iron (see puddling process). With the invention of the Bessemer process and open-hearth process, steel supplanted wrought iron for structural purposes, and its use in the 20th century has been principally decorative
Iron that is worked by being forged or hammered
{i} malleable form of iron that contains 0.2 % carbon and strong metal, metal used for creating chains and wires
A form of iron that is soft, tough, and fibrous in structure, containing about 0 1 percent carbon and 1 to 2 percent slag
Wrought iron is pure iron crystals with thin layers of silicous slag resulting in grainyness simliar to wood Lack of carbon makes wrought iron unhardenable but very ductile The grainyness requires special handling in forging, cutting and punching Wrought was the product of early bloomeries and was the primary ductile form of iron for several millennia It was last manufactured as "charcoal iron" in Sweden in 1968 It was last manufactured by the ? process in the U S Wrought iron is also the description of decorative ironwork that is made of any metal including wrought iron, steel, cast iron and aluminium Wrought iron is also used to describe low carbon steel pipe See iron
