SIDUR wear steel 400, 450, 500
Carbon wear steel grades SIDUR 400, 450 and 500 are superior in performance to many materials in their class.
Significant strength of steel is acquired by heat treatment using a unique quenching and tempering technology.
Numerical index, wear-resistant steel grade, indicates its hardness, in units on the Brinell scale. The choice of grade largely depends on the type of wear that products from this steel may face.
In addition, the unique characteristics of the material are determined by its chemical composition, which includes carbon, with a share of up to 0.32%, as well as silicon, manganese, chromium, nickel and molybdenum.
Special properties
You can buy SIDUR steel for use in rather difficult operating conditions, because it stands out for its excellent balance:
– Hardness.
– Durability.
– Corrosion resistance.
– Wear resistance.
In addition, the material is well processed, bent and welded. And the exclusion of heat treatment operations allows optimizing many production processes.
Fields of application
Wear-resistant steel can be bought for the manufacture of machine and equipment elements subject to impacts that cause rapid wear. These can be dump truck bodies, excavator buckets, crushers, cutting tools, demolition equipment, and so on.
