1.5531 Structural Manganese Steel
Everything You Need to Know About 23MnB4, 30MB5, 1.5531 Structural Alloy Steel EN 10083 – 3: 2006
1.5531 Structural Manganese Steel Description
1.5531 structural manganese steel is used to create heavily loaded parts. The 23MnB4 steel shows low hardenability and high ductility. The 1.5531 structural manganese steel can be used as a substitute for expensive steel that contains molybdenum in the chemical composition. However, th height manganese content in the 1.5531 structural steel’s chemical composition makes it prone to tenderness of tempering and coarseness.
