Manganese Steel for Quarry Plants

Quarry Toughness Begins with Steel That Fights Back

When you’re processing hard rocks, limestone, basalt, granite, or sandstone, your quarry equipment takes a beating. That’s why leading stone processing plants trust High Manganese Steel Plates in their crushers, feeders, conveyors, hoppers, and liners.

At Hindustan Steel Corporation, we supply Hadfield Manganese Plates (ASTM A128 / X120Mn12 / MN13) that thrive under extreme abrasion and impact. In quarry plants where downtime is expensive, manganese steel delivers a longer life, lower wear rate, and superior impact resistance compared to standard AR plates.

Why Quarry Plants Choose Manganese Steel

  • Work-hardens with every impact — gets stronger over time
  • Absorbs shock and gouging from hard stones
  • Lasts 2–3X longer than mild steel or AR400 in heavy-load zones
  • Non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, and crack-resistant
  • Easy to profile, cut-to-fit, and maintain over time

What is High Manganese Steel?

 

Manganese Applications in Quarry Equipment

Our manganese steel plates are widely used in the following equipment:

  1. Stone Crusher Jaw Plates
  2. Grizzly Feeders & Impact Liners
  3. Bunker Linings & Discharge Chutes
  4. Conveyor Drop Zones
  5. Cone Crusher Bowls & Mantles
  6. Hopper & Transfer Points
  7. Belt Protection & Side Plates

All wear parts can be CNC profiled, waterjet cut, or plasma cut as per your engineering drawings.

Real Quarry Use Case – MN13 Plates in Granite Site

A granite crushing plant in Telangana replaced standard steel liners with our MN13 Manganese Plates for their cone crusher and grizzly feeder. The result:

  • Wear life improved by 3.2x
  • Maintenance cost dropped 42%
  • Machine downtime reduced from 14 days/month to 5 days/month

The client now uses X120Mn12 steel for all high-wear zones across the plant.

Grades & Properties Used in Quarrying

We supply a wide variety of manganese steel grades including:

Grade / Standard Key Details
ASTM A128 Gr. B2 Crusher-ready Hadfield steel
DIN 1.3401 / X120Mn12 Used for screen, liner & chute wear
MN13 Indian grade used in quarry liners
IS 276 Local spec for high manganese steel

Mechanical Properties (Typical Values):

  • Mn content: 11% to 14%
  • Yield Strength: 350+ MPa
  • Surface Hardness (raw): 180–220 BHN
  • Work-hardened hardness: Up to 550 BHN
