X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates are non magnetic austenitic type steel plates, which is ideal for wear applications where high impact/gouging abrasion leads to a work hardening effect. And X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates are more and more welcomed in service of rapidly developing a work hardened surface whilst retaining its tough interior.
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates chemical compositions:
Carbon 1.20%
Silicon 0.15%
Manganese 11.00-14.00%
Sulphur 0.020%
Phosphorous 0.020%
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates mechanical properties:
Tensile (UTS): 880 N/mm²
Yield: 320 N/mm²
Elongation(50.8mm): 40 %
Hardness Brinell:200
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates applications:
The rapidity with which X120Mn12 work hardens make this steel grade suitable for applications where the components must resist wear under conditions of sliding contact, often coupled with heavy pressure and repeated impact. Typical applications are wearing plates, stone or iron chutes, industrial trackwork, anti drill plates such as security doors, shot blasting equipment and tumbling machines.
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates weldability
With a high coefficient of thermal expansion and low thermal conductivity it is liable to distortion due to local overheating and welding should be carried out at a low thermal level. It is recommended to avoid welding at 300°C to 800°C as this can cause embrittlement due to carbide precipitation. Welding should be carried out using such as E308Mo type austenitic stainless consumables. We recommend you contact your welding consumables supplier who should provide you full assistance and information on welding high manganese steel.
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates formality:
Forming can be carried out without difficulty, as the plate in the supplied condition is ductile. To avoid cracking, edges which have been work hardened by shearing should have a 2mm to 3mm chamfer ground along the edge to be formed. To avoid work hardening forming should be carried out in one operation.
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates technical services:
1.Cutting:
If a good edge quality is required plasma arc or laser cutting processes are recommended. Flame cutting is possible but the edge quality is poor. It is possible to shear high manganese steel plate but the blades and machine should be in good condition and the shear should not be operated close to its maximum rated capacity.
2.drilling:
Due to its 11% to 14% manganese content the steel is difficult to drill and will work harden very quickly. Heavy duty and very rigid machinery is required using either armour piercing drills in 8% cobalt high speed steel, or preferably use special drills with replaceable carbide inserts. Try to avoid centre punching or allowing the drill to rub on the surface without the feed being engaged, as this will have the effect of work hardening.
X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates are supplied in accordance with our ISO 9001 : 2008 registration and In service X120Mn13, DIN 1.3401 high manganese steel plates rapidly work hardens, increasing the Brinell hardness figure up to approximately 500HB. If have needs, contact us freely.
