Need for cast iron pipes with a glass-like inner lining to resist corrosive chemicals and hard water buildup.

Current cast iron pipes lack a protective inner coating, leading to corrosion from harsh chemicals like Draino and buildup from hard water; no readily available product combines the strength of cast iron with a glassy liner.
