Stulz-Sickles Manganal® Hadfield Grade Manganese Steel
- Fully austenitic
- Quench annealed
- Non-magnetic
- Work-hardened (by shock or high impact pressure in service)
The main characteristics are a superior wear resistance: Severe wear on the surface has a work-hardening effect on it's austenitic structure. This, when combined with the level of carbon in accordance with the international standards, leads to an increase in hardness from 200 BHN (in as delivered plates) up to an in-service hardness of at least 600BHN.
