Why are the pump bodies of compressors made of ductile iron instead of carbon steel?

The oil pump of a compressor is generally used to transport lubricating oil, and ball-milled cast iron is sufficient for this purpose; carbon steel is more expensive, and I think this is the main reason.

The main reason is the casting properties of metal materials!
