Wear and impact-resistant steel AR400 AR500

AR400 and AR500 are two common wear-resistant and impact resistant steels used to provide excellent protection in highly worn and impact environments. AR400 typically has a hardness of 360-440HBW, suitable for moderate wear environments, while AR500 has a hardness of at least 500HBW, suitable for higher levels of wear requirements.

AR400 AR500 steels are enhanced in hardness, strength, and wear resistance through the addition of specific alloying elements and processes such as quenching and heat treatment. They are widely used in mining, construction, logistics and other fields, such as excavator barrels, conveying equipment and other components that need to withstand severe wear and impact.

The choice between steel AR400 or AR500 depends on specific project requirements, including environmental conditions, stress types, and required durability. Choosing and applying these wear-resistant and impact resistant steels correctly can extend equipment life, reduce maintenance costs, and improve production efficiency.
