PLATE<br />

HARDOX WEAR PLATE<br />

Swedish <strong>Steel</strong> (SSAB)<br />

Swedish <strong>Steel</strong> produces the cleanest, most<br />

consistent, most technically advanced high<br />

strength steels in the world.<br />

SSAB is a leading producer of advanced high strength<br />

steel, a product allowing for lighter product with<br />

increased strength and longevity. SSAB has an annual<br />

steel production capacity of<br />

8.8 million tonnes.<br />

SSAB plate has an<br />

AccuRollTech guarantee. Computers check the<br />

plate over 100 times a second during roll out achieve<br />

a maximum thickness variation of 0.5–1.2mm for<br />

thicknesses of 2mm–80mm.<br />

Hardox Wear Plate<br />

Extreme wear resistance has always been<br />

key to the success of Hardox<br />

Hardox provides a unique combination of hardness and<br />

toughness for smarter, lighter structures with extreme<br />

performance and extended service life.<br />

Originally intended as a wear plate, it turned out that<br />

the unique combination of hardness and toughness<br />

allows Hardox to perform as a load-carrying part in many<br />

applications. With Hardox, you can design structures that<br />

are wear-resistant, strong and lightweight at the same<br />

time.<br />

Hardness and toughness working together<br />

Hardness is what gives Hardox its unique wear<br />

resistance and structural strength.<br />

Hardox delivers<br />

the same wear<br />

resistance during<br />

the plate’s entire<br />

service life, since<br />

it remains<br />

equally hard<br />

throughout.<br />

Hardness<br />

also provides excellent<br />

yield and tensile strength to resist<br />

deformation.<br />

Toughness is the other strong point of Hardox, making<br />

it possible for Hardox to be bent, formed and welded<br />

without cracking. If a Hardox wear plate is stressed<br />

beyond its yield point and plastically deformed—on<br />

purpose in the workshop or when hit by a heavy rock on<br />

site—it will resist cracking and if a localized crack should<br />

occur it will resist propagation.<br />
