Manganese was a metal that could be combined with other materials to form alloys. When combined with brass, it formed manganese brass, a metal alloy that was used in lightsaber construction. The hilt of Jedi Master Luminara Unduli's personal lightsaber was encased in manganese brass to prevent corrosion.[1] The metal was also combined with plastoid to form a manganese-plastoid alloy which provided lightweight-durability. This material was used to construct the segmented track of the Pasaana Kitha-Garra-du DN-25 treadable.[2]
Behind the scenes
Manganese was first identified in the 2018 reference book Star Wars Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force, written by Pablo Hidalgo.[1]
