AR Plate & Strips

Typical Properties of AR400

AR400 is “thru-hardened”, abrasion resistant, alloy wear plate. Hardness range is 360/440 BHN with a nominal hardness of 400 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. Abrasion resistant steels are typically sold to hardness range and not a fixed chemistry. Slight variations in chemistry are present depending upon the producing mill. 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.
