Description Austenitic Mn-steel. The well-known Hadfield steel still has broad applications in the mineral processing industry. Especially under impact loading Hadfield steel displays good wear resistance due to its high cold work ability. However, Hadfield steel is not corrosion resistant.
Applications Components for dredgers and crushers, conveying machines: crushing jaws, impact wedges, linings and more.
Physical properties (average values) at ambient temperature Modulus of elasticity [103x N/mm2]: 190-210 Density [g/cm3]: 7.88
Hardening Harden from a temperature of 1000-1050oC followed by water quenching. Hardness after quenching is about 200 HB.
Machinability The machinability of this steel is poor. Forms manufactured: Please see theDimensional Sales Program.
