Turning Earth, Harvesting Durability
When it comes to ploughing the hardest soils, not all steel survives the season. HIND MANGANESE for Plowshares is engineered to not only survive — but thrive — under abrasive, high-impact agricultural conditions.
Forged from 12–14% high manganese steel and hardened through use, these plates are ideal for ploughshares, tillers, rotary blades, and soil chisels that demand shock resistance, edge retention, and long wear life. Whether you’re in rice paddies, rocky black soil, or hard clay terrain, HIND’s plough-grade steel is your agronomic advantage.
HIND MANGANESE for Plowshares is a high-performance grade of austenitic manganese steel, manufactured to meet the daily punishment of ploughing, tilling, and land cutting. Supplied as plates, profiles, or parts, it’s the first choice of OEMs, tool fabricators, and agricultural cooperatives across India and export regions.
| Feature | Benefit in Field Use |

Yes. It’s ideal for forging long-lasting sickles, choppers, and rural tools.
Typically 2–3x longer than carbon steel, depending on soil type.
Yes. Send us drawings or models, and we will deliver ready-to-use parts.
Yes, we supply to NGOs and exporters for Kenya, Tanzania, and Nigeria.
In impact-heavy terrains (like stones or hard clods), manganese steel outlasts boron due to superior toughness and shock absorption.
Choose HIND MANGANESE for Plowshares — where every blade you forge or every tiller you build means fewer breakdowns, deeper tilling, and higher ROI.

Choosing between AR500, chromium carbide plates, and manganese steel? Want to know what makes Hadfield steel special, or how to cut and weld high manganese plates?
High manganese steel is unique among wear plates. It doesn’t just resist abrasion — it transforms under it. As it gets hit, it hardens. Here’s what technical buyers, engineers, and OEMs need to know:
