NM 500 weight calculator plate weldability
summaryNM 500 is a type of wear-resistant steel plate produced by Swedish company SSAB. It is an extra hard and tough material with a nominal hardness of 500 HBW (Brinell hardness) and a high tensile strength of 1300-1700 MPa. It has an excellent combination of weldability and impact resistance, making it an ideal choice for heavy-duty applications such as crushers and dump trucks. NM 500 is also highly resistant to wear and abrasion due to its high hardness, and it can be cut, formed, machined, and welded without the need for special preheating or heat treatments. This steel plate can also be used in corrosive environments, as it is resistant to many forms of corrosion. Its high strength and low weight make NM 500 an economical choice for many industries, including construction, transportation, energy, and agriculture.
