The all-around steel that resists wear and abrasion. Hardox 400 is an abrasion-resistant steel with a nominal hardness of 400 HBW. Hardox 400 is an all-around wear resistant steel. Thanks to its high toughness, good bendability and weldability, this steel can be used in structures with moderate wear.
Mechanical Properties
1) Brinell hardness, hBW, according to eN Iso 6506-1, on a milled surface 0.5– 3 mm below surface. at least one test specimen per heat and 40 tons.
Impact Properties
For thicknesses between 6 - 11.9 mm, sub-size Charpy V-specimens are used. the specified toughness is then proportional to the cross-sectional area of the
test specimen, compared to a full-size specimen (10 x 10 mm). average of three tests.
Chemical Composition (heat analysis)
the steel is grain refined. *) Intentional alloying elements.
The bendable, weldable and highly abrasion-resistant steel. 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.
