Abrasion-resistant steel plates are exceptionally resistant to wear and abrasion. You’ll be able to extend the life of your equipment and cut down on the amount of time it takes to repair problems caused by erosion and wear. When this happens, the amount of time that can be spent on production can increase. You can use the AR500 however you see fit, wherever you go, and for whatever purpose, including the following:

 

  • Mining
  • Waste disposal vehicles
  • Chutes
  • Cubicles for the storage of various items
  • Buckets
  • Hoppers etc.

 

Although AR450 and AR400 steels are resistant to abrasion, AR500 steel is significantly more abrasive resistant. Surface hardness measurements using the Brinell scale range from 477 to 534. (BHN). Steel with a higher carbon content performs better than other types of steel in terms of its resistance to impact and slide abrasion. The steel’s malleability is decreased, on the other hand, when it has higher abrasion resistance and better strength. The abrasion-resistant steel, known as AR500, is one of the materials that fit perfectly into the above description. The higher the steel’s hardness, the less malleable it becomes. Because of this, AR500 is less weldable and presents greater challenges in terms of its ability to be shaped. Unlike other AR steels of its type, AR500 Steel Plate has various advantages that its rival products do not.

 

The AR500 steel plate possesses exceptional resistance to wear and impact, in addition to being exceptionally long-lasting. A material must be able to tolerate high wear to be suitable for use with an AR500 steel.AR500, thanks to their abrasion resistance, may be replaced less frequently than other materials, decreasing the costs of the materials and lessening the danger of catastrophic equipment failures because replacements are needed less frequently.
