Introduction of Manganese Steel ASTM A128 GR B-3
ASMT A128 Grade B-3 is Manganese steel for abrasive casting application. Some website define it as “UNS J91139” but we cannot find this number in standard.
Manufacture Process for Manganese Steel ASTM A128 GR B-3
- Sand Casting
- Shell Casting
- Lost Foam Casting
- Investment Casting (Lost Wax Casting, Precision Casting)
Our Services
- Sand Casting
Casting Quality focus on Metal Parts industry, we provide professional service in Metal Casting field.
Sand Casting is a popular metal form method, are suitable for all materiel, such as grey iron, ductile iron, malleable iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and bronze.
- Investment Casting
Also named as precision lost wax casting, mainly suitalbe for carbon steel and stainless steel parts. We also provide grey iron and ductile iron and aluminum and bronze parts by investment casting. It can achieve the best appearance with good tolerance
- Shell Casting
Shell casting method is a good option to replace investment casting and sand casting. the quality is better than sand casting parts, suitable for bulk production.
- Permanent Mold Casting
For aluminum parts and Brozne parts
- CNC Machining
CNC Milling, CNC turning with 5 xix CNC center, we provide precision machining for all castings based on customers design drawings.
- CAD Design
Mechanical Design service based on customers requirement, our software is Solidworks and AutoCAD.
- Tools/Mold Design
Mould design and production will be served for metal casting ad plastic injection industry. Based on our more than 10 years experience, we supply professional molds for our customers in Europe and North American.

Manganese Steel ASTM A128 GR B-3 Mechanical Property
No Mechanical Property required in ASTM A128 standard.
Manganese Steel ASTM A128 GR B-3 Heat Treatment Requirement
Grade B3 shall be suitably heat treated to achieve toughness and ductility. This heat treatment shall consist of uniformly heating the castings to a temperature applicable for grade of steel produced, at least 1800°F [1000°C], and holding until the temperature is uniform throughout and quenching in an applicable medium, normally water.
For further machining, anneal is recommended at the temperature from 900 to 1100°F [500 to 600°C].
ASTM A128 Grade B-3 WELDABILITY
Manganese steel do not have good welding performance. No preheat required and control the temperature in 300 °C to avoid brittle, welded after quenching.
Manganese Steel ASTM A128 GR B-3 Application
the material is mainly used as wear-resistant steel castings, such as impact curtain, crushing chamber, crushers, blow bars, impact plates, side liners
Manganese steel Machinability:
Bad. Must be operated with high quality ceramic cutting tools
