Respective Pros and cons of Cast Iron Stove and Steel Stove
When choosing a camping stove, its benefit and drawback including the materials used must be weighed carefully to determine, which is best.
Camping stoves may vary according to the component used, which may either be a cast iron or a steel. Both proved to be beneficial; however, they have their own advantages and disadvantages, which are as follows:
Comparison between a Cast iron stove and a steel stove
Characteristics of cast iron stove
A stove that is made of cast iron is composed of iron and alloys. Here are some of its pros and cons namely:
Low melting point
It can easily be melted even with low temperature; therefore, it allows easy and fast molding of iron. It has also good fluidity, which facilitates ease in casting. Due to less energy required when making a tool, it guarantees affordability and precision of work.
Castable
From the word cast iron, castability means the ability to assume desired shape after it has solidified. This property provides convenience in molding the stove into a particular shape.
Resistant to deformation
Despite its brittleness, cast irons are resistant to deformation because of the alloying elements such as silicon and carbon are added into it make it harder. The change in composition like the incorporation of manganese is also added to increase its density and strength.
Brittle
It is less tensile and not so resistant as compared to steel. When subject to stress, it can either be deformed or possibility of breaking may occur.
Characteristics of a steel stove
Steel is mostly iron with a little composition of carbon, tungsten and manganese, which are referred to as alloying elements. They contribute to the hardness and strength of steel. However, the most obvious disadvantage of steel over the other materials is its weight. It tends to be heavier, which makes it impractical to transport. The following are the most distinguishing properties of steel namely:
Weldability
Most metals can be welded; however, not all permits ease when welding. The ability of the steel to be joined at any point is an advantage in times where breaks are present.
Resistant to rust
Rust is formed when iron and oxygen react with each other in the presence of air or water. With the added alloy contents, rust formation is diminished.
Conclusion
With the recent technology that we have, lots of innovations are done to improve every camping stove that is invented. Manufacturers compete with each other by formulating new concepts to make it advantageous over the other units. However, based on the comparison, each stove has their respective downside. The choice as to the best kind of stove would still depend on the consumers’ preference. These are just provided to help you decide what suits your needs.

Is welding tungsten possible?
can tungsten be welded
No not with arc welding, but you can use gas welding. Brasing or silver-solder
