Manganese steel is sold in rounds, flats, squares and special shapes under the brand name 'Manganal'. 

High Manganese, known as “Manganal” is fully austenitic, quench annealed, nonmagnetic, work-hardening 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 the austenitic structure of this steel. 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.
