Abrex 500 Steel Plate

Product Description

Abrex 500 is a type of abrasion-resistant steel plate manufactured by NSSMC (Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation), a prominent Japanese steel company. It is renowned for its high hardness and toughness, making it suitable for applications where resistance to abrasive wear is critical.

Here are some key features of Abrex 500 steel plate:

High Hardness: Abrex 500 has a hardness of around 500 Brinell, which provides excellent resistance to abrasion, gouging, and impact.
Toughness: Despite its high hardness, Abrex 500 retains good toughness, allowing it to withstand heavy impacts and deformation without fracturing.

Weldability: While high hardness steel can sometimes pose challenges in welding, Abrex 500 is designed to maintain good weldability with appropriate welding techniques and preheating.

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

Applications: Abrex 500 is commonly used in industries such as mining, construction, earthmoving, and material handling, where equipment is subjected to abrasive wear and impact. It is utilized in components like buckets, liners, crushers, chutes, and conveyors to prolong the service life of equipment and reduce maintenance costs.
