AISI 1572 High Carbon Manganese Steel combines a relatively high carbon level with heat-treatment capability. The selected grade is used where strength, hardness, wear performance or hardenability are important.
Manganese improves hardenability compared with many plain high-carbon steels.
The grade can achieve high strength through suitable heat treatment.
Heat-treated structures can provide useful wear resistance.
Tempering allows the hardness-toughness balance to be adjusted for the service requirement.
AISI 1572 High Carbon Manganese Steel is selected for applications where strength, hardness, wear resistance or controlled hardenability are important.
Selected for load-bearing and wear-prone mechanical parts.
Used for selected resilient components.
Suitable for heat-treated wear parts.
Selected for machinery and automotive components requiring hardenability.
Specify both nominal grade and treatment condition because section size strongly affects the achieved properties.
AISI 1572 can offer useful hardenability for suitably designed heat-treated components.
Verify the actual chemistry and mechanical results against the applicable supply standard.
No one-to-one Werkstoff number was verified for AISI 1572 High Carbon Manganese Steel in the cross-reference sources checked for this update, so this page does not assign a number. Confirm any proposed EN alternative against the applicable product standard and supplier certificate before substitution.
