The invention relates to the technical field of casting, in particular to molding sand suitable for a wet core during malleable iron pipe fitting casting. The molding sand is prepared from the following components of, in percentage by mass, 45%-55% of old sand, 35%-45% of fresh sand, 5%-8% of bentonite, 0.1%-0.4% of starch, 0.1%-0.4% of coal powder and 1%-3% of water. The fresh sand and the old sand are sequentially added into a sand mixer according to a ratio, then the coal powder and the bentonite are added, then the starch is added, finally the water is added, stirring is carried out in thesame direction, and after all the components are uniformly stirred, the molding sand is obtained. The molding sand can be used for core producing for the wet core, and the prepared wet core is high in reusability and strong in binding force. The wet core prepared by the molding sand is high in wet pressure strength, and good in collapsibility and good in air permeability after casting. The use ofthe core iron is cancelled, the waste of the core iron material is avoided, a sorting core iron working procedure is not needed, and the core making efficiency is further improved.
