Corrosion Resistance
AR200 Abrasion Resistant Steel Plates offer moderate resistance to corrosion in normal atmospheric conditions. However, they are not specifically designed as corrosion-resistant materials. For applications exposed to moisture or chemicals, protective coatings, painting, or galvanizing may be recommended to improve corrosion resistance.
Heat Resistance
AR200 plates can withstand moderate temperature conditions without significant loss of mechanical properties. However, prolonged exposure to very high temperatures may reduce hardness and wear resistance.
These plates are generally suitable for applications involving moderate heat and mechanical stress.
Heat Treatment
AR200 steel plates are typically supplied in the as-rolled condition and do not require extensive heat treatment. In some cases, processes such as normalizing or stress relieving may be performed to improve structural stability and mechanical performance.
Proper heat treatment helps maintain the hardness and wear resistance of the steel plate.
Welding
AR200 Abrasion Resistant Steel Plates have good weldability when proper welding procedures are followed.
Common welding methods include:
- Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)
- Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW / MIG)
- Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW)
- Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)
Preheating may be recommended for thicker plates to prevent cracking and ensure strong weld joints.
Fabrication
AR200 plates can be fabricated using conventional steel fabrication techniques. These include:
- Cutting
- Drilling
- Bending
- Machining
- Forming
Due to their hardness, appropriate tooling and cutting techniques should be used to achieve accurate fabrication results.
Applications
- Mining and quarry equipment
- Dump truck bodies
- Conveyor systems
- Agricultural machinery
- Material handling equipment
- Structural components
- Industrial chutes and hoppers
- Wear liners and protective plates
