Located in the heart of Hamilton, New Zealand, Will Sheetsandplates is your trusted local source for high-performance materials. We take pride in manufacturing and supplying robust 12-14% High Manganese Steel sheet and plate, a material renowned for its exceptional durability. This isn’t your average steel; it’s a specialist grade engineered to withstand the most punishing impacts and relentless abrasion. For industries throughout New Zealand facing extreme wear challenges, we deliver a local solution that combines world-class material science with on-the-ground expertise and reliable service.
The unique strength of this steel comes from its specific composition, centred around a high 12-14% manganese content. This alloying element gives the material its remarkable characteristic: it actually gets harder the more it is impacted. While it starts in a tough but relatively soft state, repeated blows or pressure cause it to work-harden dramatically, developing a super-hard surface layer that resists further wear. Beneath this hardened surface, the core remains incredibly tough and shock-absorbent, preventing cracking under heavy loads, which makes it far superior to conventional brittle hard steels.
