Choosing the right mantle and concave material is one of the most important decisions for any mining or quarry operation. Crusher wear parts directly influence crusher performance, maintenance frequency, production efficiency, and the overall cost per ton.

Best Materials for Abrasive Ore

For most hard and abrasive mining applications, high-manganese steel remains the preferred material. Common grades include Mn13, Mn18, and Mn22. For highly abrasive ores like granite, basalt, quartzite, and iron ore, Mn18Cr2 and Mn22Cr2 are recommended.

How to Choose Between Mn18, Mn22, and Alloy Steel

Choose Mn18 for balanced cost and service life. Choose Mn22 for maximum wear resistance in severe abrasion. Choose alloy or composite materials when conventional manganese liners wear out too quickly.

Factors Affecting Wear Life

Ore abrasiveness, feed size, crusher settings, moisture content, chamber profile, and heat treatment all influence liner performance.
