The HARDOX450 is a high-strength, wear-resistant steel developed and produced by SSAB in Sweden. It is widely used in mining, construction, machinery, metallurgy and other fields, and is considered to be the best choice to solve the wear problem.
HARDOX450 steel plate features:
Excellent wear resistance: The surface hardness of HARDOX450 reaches 450HBW, which can effectively resist wear and prolong service life.
High strength: The strength of HARDOX450 is twice higher than that of ordinary structural steel, and the weight is relatively light, which can reduce the load of the structure itself and improve the overall efficiency.
Good weldability and processability: The HARDOX450 steel plate is easy to weld and process, and can be cut, formed and welded according to specific requirements.
The main chemical components of HARDOX450 include carbon (C) 0.42~0.50%, Silicon (Si) 0.15~0.35%, manganese (Mn) 1.20~1.60%, chromium (Cr) 16.00~18.00%, molybdenum (Mo) 0.80~1.20%, and Molybdenum (Mo) 0.80~1.20%. And vanadium (V) 0.25~0.35%. Together, these elements give the HARDOX450 excellent wear resistance and strength.
HARDOX450 has high strength and excellent toughness, good hardenability, no tempering brittleness, and excellent fatigue resistance. High hardness, red hardness and toughness can be obtained when used in tempered state. When used in annealed form, it can maintain good toughness; When the normalizing state is used, the grain can be refined and the structure defects can be eliminated, and the best comprehensive mechanical properties can be obtained.
Application of HARDOX450 steel plate:
Construction industry: HARDOX450 is often used to make buckets of excavators and loaders, blades of crushers and other parts to effectively improve the service life and work efficiency of equipment.
Mining industry: In mines, HARDOX450 is used to make wear-resistant parts for crushing machines, ball mills, screening machines and other equipment, as well as structural parts for heavy duty equipment such as mining cars and mining conveyor belts.
Metallurgy industry: In the field of metallurgy, HARDOX450 is used to make wear-resistant parts for blast furnaces, converter, continuous casting machines and other equipment, as well as high-temperature parts such as furnace bottom and furnace wall.
Other industries: In addition, HARDOX450 is also used in the electric power, chemical and other industries, for the production of abrasive parts for coal mills, fans, pumps and other equipment, as well as various transmission pipes and storage tanks.
