NM400 steel properties equivalent steel material in Indian standard

    
    NM400 steel is a high strength wear-resistant steel material that has been developed for a wide range of applications in the construction, machinery, and other industries. It is very suitable for applications in tough and demanding environments, and is known for its superior performance characteristics including high durability, creep resistance, excellent wear resistance, and workability under various conditions.
    
    In comparison to other steels, NM400 steel offers a higher degree of strength and wear resistance due to its high carbon and manganese composition. This makes it more suitable for use in applications that require heavy-duty wear resistance. The steel is also heat treatable, and can be harden to a maximum hardness of 650 Brinell, which allows it to perform better than other wear-resistant steel materials in different applications.
    
    NM400 steel is equivalent in strength to SAE-J434 Grade D, 425-450 BHN. This grade is substantially tougher than typical steel classifications under American standards. It is also equivalent to EN10025-S460 steel, AISI D2 steel and DIN X120Mn12 steel.
    
    In Indian standard, the equivalent material for this steel material is IS2062 grade E450 D/E450 D, which is also referred to as mild steel with superior properties. Specifically, IS2062 grade E450 D/E450 D material has a yield strength of 265-415 N/mm² as per Indian standard, and is thus suitable for most structural applications.
    
    NM400 steel is generally used in applications such as crushers, conveyor liners, screens, agricultural equipment, and containers. Its superior wear resistance and high strength makes it suitable for use in impact and sliding wear components that require a high degree of wear resistance. It can also be used in combination with other steels like 1045 steel in making wear components such as rolling and bearing components, rails, and blades.
    
    Overall, NM400 steel is an extremely versatile and reliable steel material with superior resistance to wear, impact and corrosion. Thus, it is a great choice for applications that require superior wear and impact resistance.
