hardening steel plates

Thru-hardened wear plate

  • We offer both nominal Hardness range plates, 400 BHN and 500 BHN
  • Service Temperature is 400°F.
  • This plate product is intended for use in applications where a good balance of formability, weldability, toughness and abrasion resistance are required.


Available sizes

400 BHN Plate:

From 1/8 to 4 inches

500 BHN Plate:

From 1/4 to 1.5 inches.

Ask for your specific application.

Other thicknesses can be delivery under demand.

Sizes stock is subjets to demand.


Application Specifications:

  1. Cutting – Plasma burning, air arc, abrasive saw or water jet.
  2. Welding – overlay plates can be joined by welding the substrate to substrate using weld wire or rod.
  3. Bending – Using a press brake or rolling.


Abrasion resistant steels are typically sold to hardness range and not a fixed chemistry.

Applications may include use in mining, quarries, bulk material handling, steel mills, and pulp & paper industries. Wear plate products are designed for liner applications; they are not intended for use as self-supporting structures or lifting devices.

Applications

The cement production process finds use of wear plates all the way from the limestone quarry to loading and transporting the final product. The abrasive applications include excavating, crushing, screening and grinding the stone.

Recycling processes, such as the fragmentizing of waste, places enormous demands on equipment. In order to stay productive and competitive it is vital to use materials that withstand the abuse. Wear plate is the solution that allows to cut costs, improve service life, and optimize production.

In mining operations resistance wear plates translates to extended service life between repairs or replacement of parts.

Road building needs a variety of equipment, from trucks that transport heavy material long distances to machines that withstand extreme wear when breaking ground. Wear plates allows for thinner steel that lowers overall weight and enables increased payloads
