Default Removing sink drain from cast iron stack

The drain plumbing on the bath sink is rusted out and needs to go. It is
silver colered but don't know what kind of metal it is (standard thin 1 1/4"
drain plumbing). It appears to screw inside the female cast iron stack.
The connection to the stack looks all built up with scale and rust and am
afraid if I take a monkey wrench to the rusted pipe it will crumble or twist
into a prezel and not turn. It there a proper tool or way to get this out?
Thanks,
Dave
