NM500 wear steel equivalent
NM500 wear steel is an abrasion resistant steel designed to provide outstanding service life and performance. It is widely used in mining, quarrying, wear-resistant components, and other engineering applications.
NM500 wear steel was developed to provide excellent protection and long service life in many common forms of heavy-duty wear applications, including draglines, buckets, dredges, hoppers and screens, earthmoving and power shovelling equipment, and wear chutes. NM500 provides reliable protection from wear and abrasion in most applications and is especially well-suited for high impact applications, such as in trenchers, excavating buckets and scraper blades.
NM500 wear steel has outstanding abrasion resistance properties and is especially suited to areas of equipment and machinery exposed to high stress from abrasive materials, such as mining and quarrying machinery. Its excellent strength, work-hardening and wear resistance capabilities make NM500 an ideal choice for applications that require outstanding wear and abrasion protection.
NM500 wear steel provides excellent wear and corrosion resistance while also providing outstanding weldability, machinability, and corrosion resistance making it an excellent choice for many engineering applications. NM500 has excellent good tensile and impact strength and is highly resistant to wear and abrasion. It is often used in applications such as bucket teeth, dragline buckets, conveyor parts and crusher grinding plates.
NM500 offers enhanced protection and resistance to impact, tear, cut and abrasion, and also offers excellent weldability and machinability. NM500 wear steel also has the added advantage of being resilient to high temperatures, making it a great option for high-temperature applications, such as furnace and kiln linings.
NM500 is the perfect choice for wear-resistant components, for its excellent strength and abrasion resistance properties. It is cost effective and the product life cycle is much longer than other steels. With high performance, excellent wear resistance and cost effectiveness, NM500 wear steel is an excellent all-round protection against wear, abrasion and impact in many heavy-duty applications.
