Meaning Of Spiegel iron
A fusible white cast iron containing a large amount of
carbon (from three and a half to six per cent) and some manganese. When
the manganese reaches twenty-five per cent and upwards it has a
granular structure, and constitutes the alloy ferro manganese, largely
used in the manufacture of Bessemer steel. Called also specular pig
