AR600 is the most durable abrasion resistant steel plate. Its impressive surface hardness makes it ideal for high wear applications.
What is AR400 steel good for?
AR400 stands for abrasion resistant with a minimum hardness on the Brinell scale of 360 and a nominal hardness of 400. Typical uses of AR steel, which is classified as a carbon steel, include chutes for gravel or coal in mining, liners for heavy equipment, and rifle range silhouette targets.AR400 stands for abrasion resistant with a minimum hardness on the Brinell scale of 360 and a nominal hardness of 400.

What is the difference between AR400 and AR500 steel?
The major difference is impact resistance. AR500 has higher abrasion resistance, but AR400 has higher impact resistance. Since AR400 plate is softer than AR500 plate, it can withstand more impact without cracking or shattering.19 May 2021
What is the difference between Hardox and AR400?
AR400F is quenched and tempered through hardened wear resistant grades of abrasion resistant steel plate used for high impact and abrasion resistance. Hardox® 450 is a quenched and tempered produced plate that is used in Dump bodies, crushers, feeders, cutter edges, buckets, etc.
What is Hardox made of?
Hardox Wear Plate is a very wear resistant steel plate, which is manufactured by SSAB and sold worldwide. As this steel wears very slowly even under heavy mechanical loads, it is used in many areas of industry.
Is Hardox an alloy?
Steel plate of this standard has one feature of low carbon content, which improves its flexibility and impact resistance; Alloy content chromium and nickel content improves steel state for better wear resistant ability. Hardox 400 has the lowest hardness, hardness increases as the steel grade rises.
Is Hardox mild steel?
Choose the right wear plate to boost the performance and productivity of your equipment and parts. Hardox® wear plate is designed to deliver great performance and a long wear life. Max/min sliding wear by SSAB WearCalc (mild steel 0.2-0.8).
What is Hardox steel used for?
For the fragmentation of waste, especially plastics, tires, cables and rubber waste, Hardox can be used. The high toughness of Hardox steels provides substantially higher resistance against chipping. Hardox 500, 550 or 600. Hammers are used for the fragmentation of waste and minerals.
Is hardox the same as Ar?
Hardox is not an alloy of steel but a company in Sweden that makes a high quality AR plate. Hardox makes Hardox 400, Hardox 450, and Hardox 500 so the steel has the same basic characteristics as it counterpart AR Steel.11 Dec 2019
What kind of steel is hardox?
Hardox® 500 is a bendable and weldable abrasion-resistant steel, with a nominal hardness of 500 HBW. Suitable for applications that demand higher wear resistance. Hardox® 500 increases payload and increases service life while maintaining good processability and toughness.
What does Hardox mean?
