HARDOX® 450 WEAR PARTS
The most popular abrasion-resistant steel with excellent structural properties.
Hardox® 450 is an abrasion-resistant steel with a nominal hardness of 450 HBW. Hardox® 450 combines good bendability and weldability with an option for guaranteed impact toughness (Hardox 450 Tuf).
Hardox® 450 is available in thicknesses of 3.2 – 130 mm (1/8 – 5.12″) as plate, as sheet in thicknesses 2.0 – 8.0 mm (0.079 – 0.315″) and as CR sheet in thicknesses 0.7 – 2.1 mm (0.028 – 0.083″). For thicknesses over 80 mm (3.15″) the preferred width is 1650 mm (64.96″). More detailed information on dimensions is provided in the dimension program.
WHAT IS HARDOX® 450?
Hardox® 450 has been setting the benchmark for quality steel for more than 30 years, for good reason. It has a solid reputation as a highly versatile, abrasion-resistant steel that also has structural properties. With an extra 50 HBW hardness over AR 400 grades, it provides additional wear resistance for an extended service life with similar toughness as an AR 400 steel. This allows for more high-performing buckets, dump bodies and other equipment that lasts longer and still can take impact forces without compromising structural integrity.
