Abrasion Resistant Steel Plate AR400

Overview

AR400 is a through-hardened abrasion resistant steel plate with a guaranteed Brinell hardness of 370–430 HBW. Offering approximately four times the wear resistance of standard mild steel, AR400 significantly extends the service life of wear-critical components in the most abrasive environments, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership.

Key Features

• Through-hardened — consistent hardness from surface to core, unlike surface-hardened alternatives
• Impact resistance — excellent balance of hardness and toughness for impact-loaded applications
• Weldability — weldable with low-hydrogen electrodes and controlled preheat procedures
• Cold formability — can be press-braked with appropriate radius to form wear liners and chute sections
• Custom profiling — plasma and laser cutting services available to part drawings

Typical Applications

Dump truck bodies, loader buckets, crusher liners, conveyor chutes, hoppers, screening equipment, and pipeline wear bends in mining and quarrying operations.
