The cast iron elbows are widely used in water supply and drainage, pollution discharge, petroleum and petrochemical industries, road engineering, public works and municipal buildings, power and paper industries and fire protection engineering.

As for the small cast iron elbows, most of iron foundries will produce them by green sand floor molding process or shell molding process. As for the large elbows, it will be necessary to use resin sand casting process. As for the super large elbows, then it will require the green sand buried casting process.

You could find many iron foundries and suppliers in China, who could produce normal cast iron elbows, however, as for the pipe fittings with high pressure or strict anti-rust requirements, or super large elbows, you need to find the professional cast iron pipe fitting manufacturers.
