What are the differences between steel welded tables and cast iron welded tables?

The main differences between steel welded tables and cast iron welded tables are as follows:

1. Material properties:

- Steel is generally strong and tough, with high tensile strength and ductility. For example, steel tables are less likely to break when subjected to impact and vibration.

- Cast iron is relatively brittle, with high compressive strength, but poor tensile strength and toughness.

2. Weight:

- Generally speaking, cast iron has a higher density, so cast iron welded tables tend to be heavier, and may be more difficult to carry and move.

- Steel tables are relatively light and easy to adjust their positions.

3. Processing difficulty:

- Steel has better welding performance and is relatively easy to process, and can achieve more complex shapes and structures.

- Cast iron is more difficult to weld and requires higher welding technology.

4. Cost:

- In general, the cost of cast iron may be relatively low.

- High-quality steel is more expensive, resulting in a higher cost for steel welded tables.

5. Appearance:

- The surface treatment of steel tables is relatively diverse, and can be painted, galvanized, etc., which makes the appearance more beautiful.

- The surface of cast iron table is relatively rough, and the appearance texture is relatively simple.

6. Corrosion resistance:

- Some types of steel have good corrosion resistance,

- Cast iron is easy to rust and corrode in a humid environment.

For example, a work table that needs to be moved frequently in a factory workshop may choose a steel welded table; while for some equipment tables that need to withstand high pressure and are fixed in position, a cast iron welded table may be more suitable.
