Manganese steel casting is a process used to create highly durable and wear-resistant components made from manganese steel. This type of steel is known for its high impact strength and resistance to abrasion, making it ideal for industries like mining, crushing, and quarrying.
Manganese steel contains around 11-14% manganese, which gives it unique properties such as work hardening—meaning it becomes tougher when subjected to impact or pressure. This makes it perfect for applications like crusher parts, jaw plates, cone liners, and impactor components.
Manganese steel is an alloy made with manganese, iron, and carbon. Manganese steel is a low strength but tough and ductile cast steel. Its predominant feature is the ability to work harden from an initial hardness of 240BHN to well over 500 BHN.
As the material increases in hardness, it makes the steel harder and more resistant to wear. Thereby, the abrasion resistance as well increases. Because of its self hardening properties, manganese steel has been used in the mining industry for many years – cement mixers, rock crushers, crawler treads for tractors, elevator and shovel buckets – as well as in the rail industry (switches and crossings) and other high impact environments. This it also makes it an ideal choice for construction projects that require durability and strength.
