Abrasion Resistant Plates – Hardax 400 / 450 / 500

Hardax 400, 450, and 500 are high-performance abrasion-resistant (AR) steel plates specially designed to deliver exceptional durability, impact resistance, and extended service life in aggressive wear environments. These plates are engineered to withstand intense wear and tear, reducing maintenance costs and increasing the productivity of heavy-duty industrial machinery.

With a balance of toughness, hardness, and workability, Hardax AR plates are widely used across industries like mining, quarrying, construction, cement, earthmoving, recycling, and material handling.

Grades & Features:

Grade Nominal Hardness (HBW) Key Characteristics Common Applications
Hardax 400 400 Excellent combination of wear resistance and formability Tipper bodies, liners, loaders, dozer blades
Hardax 450 450 Higher hardness with superior impact resistance Excavator buckets, dump truck beds, hoppers
Hardax 500 500 Maximum wear resistance for the most demanding applications Chutes, crushers, cutting edges, shredder components

Key Benefits:

  • Consistent hardness and wear resistance

  • Superior impact strength, even at low temperatures

  • Excellent formability and weldability

  • Longer wear life, reducing downtime and replacement costs

  • High surface finish quality, suitable for precision applications

Typical Chemical Composition (% by Weight):
