NM400 abrasion resistant steel plate equivalent
Abrasion Resistant Steel Plate is a special type of steel plate specifically designed to have superior ability to resist abrasive wear. This type of steel plate is used in applications where regular steel cannot offer adequate resistance to a high degree of surface abrasions.
Abrasion resistant steel plates are produced in such a way that makes them highly durable and able to resist any surface wear and tear. This property of the plates makes them an ideal choice for various structures like bridges, structures in extreme climates and areas subjected to high-stress environments. Steel plates classified as abrasion resistant steel plates are also very good in their notch toughness, flame and heat resistance as well as easy weldability.
NM400 abrasion resistant steel plate is one such steel plate offering good wear resistance with excellent mechanical properties. This steel plate is specifically designed to be used in applications that involve heavy wear and tear conditions. Its abrasion resistant properties ensure that it is an ideal choice for harsh use applications.
NM400 steel plate has a Brinell hardness of up to 400. The abrasion resistant steel plates have the ability to withstand extreme temperatures making it well suited for high temperature applications. It also has good weldability and notch toughness which makes it suitable for high-stress environments.
NM400 steel plate also offers good formability, cold and hot forming ability as well as machining properties. The high strength of NM400 steel plate makes it a perfect choice for applications requiring high impact requirements. In addition, NM400 steel plate is also highly corrosion resistant, making it an ideal choice for any corrosive environments.
In comparison to other abrasion resistant steel plates, NM400 steel plate offers slightly better wear resistance than other comparable steel plates. Therefore, it can be used in many different applications including mining and quarrying, sand blasting, mechanical components and wear plates. Similarly, due to its excellent properties, NM400 abrasion resistant steel plate is a suitable choice to produce crusher components, conveyor buckets and other wear parts.
Due to its varied applications and excellent properties, NM400 abrasion resistant steel plate is often compared to other grades of steel like HARDOX 400 plates. Both offer similar grade principles, however, the main difference between NM400 abrasion resistant steel plate and HARDOX 400 steel plates lies in the operating temperature range. NM400 steel plate offers higher temperature resistance and is therefore suited for applications requiring high-temperature resistance performance.
