Description

Product Description AR500 Wear Plate

AR500 wear plate is a type of abrasion-resistant steel specifically designed to withstand heavy wear and impact. The “500” refers to its hardness level, typically around 500 Brinell (BHN), making it one of the harder grades available in wear-resistant materials.

Key Features:

  • Hardness: Typically around 500 BHN, offering high abrasion resistance.
  • Impact Resistance: Excellent resistance to impact and deformation.
  • Toughness: Maintains toughness even at high hardness levels.
  • Weldability: Can be welded with proper techniques.

Fabrication Tips

  • Cutting: Laser, plasma, or water-jet cutting is recommended.
  • Welding: Requires low-hydrogen electrodes and preheating due to high hardness.
  • Machining: Challenging due to hardness; use carbide tools and low speeds.
  • Bending: Cold bending is possible with appropriate equipment and techniques.

Applications:

  • Mining equipment
  • Construction machinery
  • Material handling systems
  • Chutes, hoppers, and liners
  • Heavy-duty trucks and trailers
