Abrex 400 Steel Plate

Product Description

Abrex 400 is another grade of abrasion-resistant steel plate manufactured by NSSMC (Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation). It's a popular choice for applications where resistance to abrasive wear is required but with a slightly lower hardness compared to Abrex 500.

Here are some key features of Abrex 400 steel plate:

High Hardness: Abrex 400 has a hardness of approximately 400 Brinell, which provides excellent resistance to abrasion, gouging, and impact.
Toughness: Despite its high hardness, Abrex 400 maintains good toughness, allowing it to withstand moderate to heavy impacts and deformation without fracturing.

Weldability: Abrex 400 offers good weldability when proper welding techniques and preheating are employed. This allows for ease of fabrication and repair.

Formability: Similar to Abrex 500, Abrex 400 steel plates can be cold formed or bent to some extent, allowing for fabrication into various shapes and structures.

Applications: Abrex 400 is widely used in industries such as mining, construction, earthmoving, and material handling, where equipment is subjected to moderate to severe abrasive wear. It finds applications in components like buckets, liners, crushers, chutes, and conveyors to extend the service life of equipment and reduce maintenance costs.
