Wear Plate Improves Service Life at High Temperatures
January 1, 2017
Hardox HiTemp, the latest addition to SSAB's Hardox wear plate family, is designed to stand up to abrasive conditions in high heat environments.
"Traditional quenched and tempered wear resistant steels experience a loss of hardness at higher temperatures, in the 300-500 °C range," said a company spokesperson. "So far, alternative solutions for high temperature applications have been more costly and more complicated to work with. Hardox Hitemp wear plate is a better answer. The high temperature performance of Hardox HiTemp is achieved by using high-quality raw material in combination with a carefully controlled manufacturing process."
Hardox HiTemp can be cut, welded, machined and cold formed by the same kind of workshop machinery and technology as other Hardox grades and conventional steel. Hardox HiTemp is suitable for high temperature wear applications in process industries such as steel, cement and coal power plants, and recycling and asphalt industries.
