What an amazing response. Thank you every one for your inputs. I didn't realise this was a recognised production process. I have a spare piece of material so i plan to give it a go after consulting internet sources. Will let you know.
Thanks

I asked myself, if I had to ballize a thin cast iron sleeve, just how would I do it? Shrink fit it inside a steel tube, ballize, then cut the tube off, perhaps?
