Manganin ke lebitso le tsebahalang la motswako wa koporo o nang le 86%, 12% ya manganese, le 2% ya nickel. E qadilwe ka lekgetlo la pele ke Edward Weston ka 1892, e ntlafatswa hodima Constantan ya hae (1887).

Motsoako o hanyetsanang o nang le resistivity e itekanetseng le coefficient e tlase ea mocheso. Kou ea khanyetso/mocheso ha e bataletse joaloka li-constantan ebile ha e ntle joalo ka litšobotsi tsa khanyetso ea mafome.

Foil le terata tsa Manganin li sebelisoa tlhahisong ea li-resistor, haholo-holo li-ammeter shunts, ka lebaka la coefficient ea eona ea mocheso o batlang o le zero ea boleng ba khanyetso [1] le botsitso ba nako e telele. Li-resistor tse 'maloa tsa Manganin li sebelitse e le tekanyetso ea molao bakeng sa ohm United States ho tloha ka 1901 ho isa ho 1990.[2]Terata ea Manganine boetse e sebelisoa e le mokhanni oa motlakase lits'ebetsong tsa cryogenic, e fokotsa phetiso ea mocheso lipakeng tsa lintlha tse hlokang likhokahano tsa motlakase.

Manganin e boetse e sebelisoa ho li-gauge bakeng sa lithuto tsa maqhubu a khatello e phahameng (joalo ka a hlahisoang ke ho phatloha ha liqhomane) hobane e na le kutloelo-bohloko e tlase ea khatello empa e na le kutloelo-bohloko e phahameng ea khatello ea hydrostatic.
