Abrasion Resistant Plates

About Abrasion Resistant Plates

Abrasion Resistant AR steel plates are highcarbon alloy steels designed to withstand wear and tear extending the lifespan of components exposed to abrasive environments

Key Features

High Hardness Achieved through the addition of carbon and alloying elements resulting in a hardened microstructure that resists abrasion

Toughness Despite their hardness AR steels maintain sufficient toughness to absorb impacts without fracturing

Wear Resistance Ideal for applications involving sliding impact or abrasive wear significantly outperforming conventional structural steels

Applications

Mining Equipment Utilized in machinery like crushers and hoppers that handle abrasive materials

Construction Machinery Applied in bulldozer blades excavator buckets and dump truck beds

Material Handling Used in chutes conveyors and hoppers where materials cause constant wear

Manufacturing Process

AR plates undergo a quenching and tempering process

Quenching The steel is heated to a high temperature and then rapidly cooled increasing hardness

Tempering The steel is reheated to a lower temperature and cooled again enhancing toughness

This treatment refines the grain structure balancing hardness and toughness
