Product details

Manganese metal briquettes are pillow-shaped compacts of high-purity manganese metal. They dissolve quickly and evenly in the melt, which makes them a clean, accurate way to add manganese to steel and aluminium alloys with little loss and few inclusions.

Grades

  • Mn 97% min — for stainless steel and aluminium alloys with tight impurity limits.
  • Mn 95% min — standard grade for carbon and alloy steelmaking.

Supplying Brazil

Brazil is one of the world’s larger importers of manganese metal: its steel mills and aluminium plants buy electrolytic manganese flakes and briquettes, mostly from Asia, under NCM code 8111.00.10. We offer Brazilian buyers a second source with CIF delivery to Santos, Rio de Janeiro, Paranaguá or Itajaí, and documents prepared for clearance through Siscomex. Read our guide to exporting to Brazil.

Uses

In steelmaking, manganese removes sulphur and oxygen and raises strength and hardness; it is essential in stainless steels of the 200 series and in high-strength steels. In aluminium, manganese improves strength and corrosion resistance in alloys such as 3003 and 3004, used for beverage cans, roofing and heat exchangers.

Quality and documents

Each lot ships with a certificate of analysis showing manganese content and the main impurities. Independent sampling and analysis at loading is welcome. We state the producer and country of origin with every quotation.

Packing, loading and minimum order

The minimum order for manganese metal briquettes is 1 × 20ft FCL (approx. 25 MT). Standard packing: 1 MT jumbo bags. A 20ft container takes approx. 25 MT (weight-limited), and a 40ft container approx. 25–26 MT (weight-limited), depending on packing and the weight limits of the shipping line. Cargo is loaded at our base in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania or at the nearest port to origin, with photos of the loading and container seal sent to you the same day. Private labels, buyer-supplied packing and mixed loads with other products from our catalog can be arranged on larger or repeat orders.

Quality checks and inspection

Before loading we check grade, purity and contamination on every lot and record the weight on a calibrated weighbridge. Independent inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or another company you nominate can witness sampling, weighing and loading; the inspection cost is agreed in the contract. Assay results and a packing list with bundle or bale numbers and weights go with the shipping documents.

Export documents supplied

Each shipment travels with the documents your customs broker needs to clear the goods:

  • Commercial invoice and packing list
  • Certificate of origin
  • Assay or chemical analysis certificate
  • Weight certificate and loading photos
  • Bill of lading
  • Mineral export permit and traceability documents where the law requires them

Storage and shelf life

Metals and minerals are stored under cover on a clean, dry floor and kept separate by grade, so lots are never mixed. Bundles and bales carry lot numbers that match the packing list, which makes weighing and checking at the destination straightforward.

What affects the price

Our manganese metal briquettes prices are quoted per order. Prices for metals follow the international market, so we quote against the current London Metal Exchange price or a fixed price valid for a short period. The final price depends on the grade and purity, the quantity and number of shipments, the price basis (EXW, FOB or CIF), the destination port and the payment terms.
