At ICAST ALLOYS LLP, we specialize in the precision manufacturing of high-quality Manganese Steel Investment Castings. Known for its incredible toughness and high impact strength, manganese steel (often referred to as Hadfield steel) is the material of choice for the world’s most demanding industrial environments.
At ICAST ALLOYS LLP, we specialize in the manufacturing of high-precision Open and Closed Impellers through the lost-wax investment casting process. Combining decades of metallurgical expertise with state-of-the-art casting simulation, we deliver impellers that define the standard for hydraulic efficiency, structural integrity, and durability.
Our investment casting process (lost-wax casting) ensures that even the most complex geometries are produced with exceptional dimensional accuracy and a superior surface finish.
Manganese steel is unique because of its work-hardening properties. The more impact and stress the surface receives, the harder it becomes, while the core remains tough and ductile.
Extreme Wear Resistance: Ideal for parts subject to heavy abrasion.
High Impact Strength: Does not become brittle; absorbs shocks that would shatter other steels.
Work Hardening: Surface hardness can increase from 200 Brinell to over 500 Brinell during service.
Non-Magnetic Properties: Useful for specific electrical and industrial applications.
We produce a wide range of manganese alloy grades tailored to your specific wear requirements:
| Grade | Key Characteristic | Typical Application |
| Standard Manganese (11-14% Mn) | Excellent toughness/wear balance | Crusher jaws, liners |
| High Manganese (17-21% Mn) | Enhanced work-hardening rate | Impact bars, hammer mills |
| Chrome-Moly Manganese | Increased yield strength | Heavy-duty mining equipment |
Tooling & Pattern Making: High-precision wax injection.
Ceramic Shell Building: Multi-layered refractory coating for fine detail.
Controlled Melting: Utilizing induction furnaces for precise chemical composition.
Specialized Heat Treatment: Water quenching to ensure a fully austenitic structure for maximum toughness.
Our manganese investment castings are vital components in sectors where equipment failure is not an option:
Mining & Quarrying: Crusher plates, mantle liners, and concave segments.
Construction: Earthmoving bucket teeth and wear parts.
Railways: Frogs, switches, and crossing components.
Recycling: Shredder hammers and liners for scrap metal processing.
Cement Industry: Grinding mill liners and lifter bars.
Custom Engineering: We work with your CAD designs to optimize parts for castability and performance.
Quality Assurance: Rigorous testing including Spectro analysis, Radiography (RT), Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI), and Hardness testing.
Cost-Efficiency: Investment casting reduces the need for expensive secondary machining, saving you time and material.
Global Standards: We adhere to international material standards (ASTM, DIN, EN, BS).
Ensure your machinery stands up to the toughest tasks with high-grade manganese castings from ICAST ALLOYS LLP.
