Hardox 400 is an abrasion resistant steel with a nominal hardness of 400 hbw.
Ar400 steel data sheet.
Ar400 f steel plate is formable grade of abrasive resistance steel plate designed to accomodate applications where a life of wear is the primary cause for failure among other grades of steel plate ar400 abrasive resistance steel plate is intended for higher impact wear applications where cold bending and very good weldability is important.
As with other abrasion resistant steels it does not have a defined chemistry but rather grade is determined based on hardness.
Forming any hard plate should only be attempted by persons experienced in forming hard plate.
Hand grind edges to remove slag and eliminate potential crack initiation points.
Download certificates from activity after your order ships.
The base steel around the weld rapidly heats and cools during welding resulting in a heat affected zone haz with high hardness.
Ensure plate is at room temp or slightly warmer.
Hardox steel comes in an impressive range of types grades widths and thicknesses.
Hardox wear plate is designed to deliver great performance and a long wear life.
However the steel s special properties make it the only choice for applications such as blades in bulldozers.
Hardox 400 is an all around wear resistant steel.
Ar400 steel is a high carbon alloy steel that is specifically designed for abrasion and wear resistant applications.
What are you recommendations for welding ar400 plate.
Certificates with a traceable lot number are available for these products.
You can maximize both by choosing just the right plate for your specific application and requirements.
It s often used as wear strips liners and deflector plates.
Ar400 is thru hardened abrasion resistant alloy wear plate.
The steel is relatively expensive to produce costing much more than simple mild steels such as a36 or 1018.
Ar400 is a specialty steel designed at the chemical level for improved wear resistance for very specific applications.
Allow minimum bend radius of 4t 4 times the thickness of the plate.
It has a lower hardness of 360 444 bhn.
Service temperature is 400 f.
Hardness range is 360 440 bhn with a nominal hardness of 400 bhn.
Typical properties of ar400.

Ar400 is a quench and tempered steel and may be difficult to weld due its high strength and hardenability.
The all around steel that resists wear and abrasion.
Thanks to its high toughness good bendability and weldability this steel can be used in structures with moderate wear.
