Classification

|---|---|
| EN ISO class | E Z Fe 9 |
| DIN 8555 / EN 14700 | E 7-UM-200K |
Purpose
- Manganese austenitic hardfacing electrode (~13.5% Mn · 3% Ni) for parts under severe impact: mining and rock-crushing equipment.
- The deposit work-hardens in service: from 180–220 HB as-welded to ~550 HB under repeated impact.
Why it works
Manganese austenite work-hardens under impact (Hadfield effect): each blow compacts the working surface to ~550 HB while the core of the deposit stays tough and crack-free. That's why it holds up where a conventional hardfacing deposit would crack — jaws, hammers, crushing parts. And why machining has to happen before the deposit sees impact.
Fields of application
- Hardfacing of mining and rock-crushing machine parts.
- Direct buildup on hard manganese steels (12–14% Mn), no buffer layer needed.

Equivalence refers to the classification (AWS / EN ISO), not to product identity. In applications with a qualified procedure (WPS), validate the substitution before use.
Advantages
- Work-hardens on its own, in service, up to ~550 HB.
- Tough core: resists severe impact without cracking.
- Applies directly onto Hadfield-type steels.
Limitations
- Machinable only before the deposit has been cold-worked or put into service.
