Hardox Plate

Hardox is a trade name of SSAB (equivalents are available ). It is a wear plate, designed to last longer than standard mild steel. There are various hardness levels with 400 and 500 being the most common. It is relatively lean in alloy content and as such is not that prone to cracking especially if a few rules are followed. Hardox is weldable using 7018 electrodes or standard mild steel MIG wire (SG2) but will need to preheat for thick sections.

Always ahead of the competition, only Hardox high-strength steel uniquely combines extreme hardness and toughness into the longest and widest sheets on the market. This high-performance abrasion-resistant plate is designed for maximum payload and long service life
