The Advantages of Abrasion-Resistant Steel Plate
 

Good wear resistance
The wear-resistant steel plate has a layer of alloy wear-resistant layer on the outside, and the composition of this layer of alloy wear-resistant layer contains chemical elements such as carbon and chromium, making it twice the hardness and wear resistance of ordinary steel plates.

 

Strong impact resistance
According to what we mentioned above, there are mainly two layers of wear-resistant steel plates, the base material is low-carbon steel or low-alloy steel plate and a layer of alloy wear-resistant layer. The outer alloy wear-resistant layer can be used to resist the wear of the wear medium, and the inner base material can withstand the load of the medium, so as to achieve good impact resistance. At the same time, it can withstand the impact and abrasion of the high drop hopper in the material conveying system.

 

Good heat resistance
Adding vanadium, molybdenum and other alloys to the alloy wear-resistant layer can increase the heating degree of the steel plate. Approximately can withstand high temperature wear ≤800℃.

 

Superior corrosion resistance
Since the alloy layer of the wear-resistant composite steel plate contains a large amount of metallic chromium, it has good rust and corrosion resistance.

 

Convenient processing performance
The wear-resistant steel plate can be processed into various industrial parts through cutting, bending, welding, etc. according to the needs of the project.Abrasion-resistant steel plates have higher hardness than ordinary steel plates, and have stronger wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

 

Key Factors in Choosing the Right Wear Plate

 

When you're choosing the right wear plate for the job, there are a few things that you should consider:

Cold rolled sheet (2)

Abrasion Resistance

Longevity is the primary goal of AR steel plates. As surface hardness levels increase in the AR grades, the abrasion resistance increases, but generally at the expense of formability, weldability and impact resistance. With the hardness levels of an AR500, through hardness, and the formability of an AR400, the alloyed abrasion resistant plates provide the highest overall abrasion resistance of all the available grades.

Cold rolled sheet (3)

Impact Resistance

In the carbon/manganese/silicon-based AR grades, as hardness levels increase, impact resistance decreases. This means if your wear plates are in an impact-heavy environment, the higher hardness AR grades are generally not the ideal choice. With alloyed abrasion resistant grades, you can keep the abrasive life of the harder AR grades without the risk of cracking under impact conditions.

Low alloy plate (3)

Weldability

Weldability closely mirrors impact resistance, with the higher hardness standard AR grades being much more sensitive to cracking. The softer middle of the commodity grades also makes for uneven and non-homogeneous welding conditions which can lead to surface cracking at the toe of the welds. Through-hardened, alloyed grades are substantially more welder friendly, particularly in field welding conditions.

 

What Factors Will Affect the Quality of Wear-Resistant Steel Plates?

 

Factor 1: Heat Treatment & Alloy Content

Wear-resistant steel plates are well-defined regarding their hardness. There are mainly two ways to increase the hardness and toughness of wear plates:

 

•  Heat Treatment (QT)
For specific working environments, such as earthmoving and mining, quenched and tempered steels (QT) are an economical choice. However, while cost-effective, these types of wear plates are not as durable as alloy wear plates.

 

•  Adding Alloy Content
For alloy wear plates, there are three basic alloying elements: Carbon, silicon, and manganese. Other alloying elements can also improve the mechanical performance of wear-resistant steel plates.

 

Carbon: An increase in carbon content will raise the yield point and tensile strength but reduce ductility and impact resistance. Too much carbon content can also reduce the weldability of the steel. Therefore, balancing the carbon content in the wear plate is a crucial operation that must not be overlooked.

 

Silicon: Silicon significantly increases the elastic limit, yield point, and tensile strength of steel. However, like carbon, excessive silicon content can reduce the weldability of the steel.

 

Manganese: Manganese acts as an effective deoxidizer and helps with desulfurization during the steelmaking process. It enhances the strength, hardness, and hardenability of the steel and improves hot-working performance.

Factor 2: The Smoothness of the Surface

When considering the lifespan of wear-resistant steel plates, especially in applications such as truck bodies, conveyor belts, and fan blades, the smoothness of the surface is a critical factor. A smooth surface ensures uniform wear and helps achieve the correct bending radius, which provides precise bending accuracy.

Factor 3: Hardness Variations within the Plate

The core hardness value directly affects the lifetime of wear parts. As wear occurs and new material is exposed, the steel plate with a higher core hardness will experience a slower wear rate compared to a plate with lower core hardness, thus prolonging the service life of the parts.

 

Common Applications Of Abrasion-Resistant Steel Plate

● Mining Industry

Conveyor Systems: AR plates are used in the construction of conveyor belts and chutes, which transport abrasive materials like ores and minerals. These plates help reduce wear and extend the life of the equipment.

● Construction Industry

Excavator Buckets: AR plates are used in the manufacturing of excavator buckets, providing the necessary strength to handle rough materials like soil, gravel, and debris without excessive wear.
Dump Truck Bodies: Dump trucks that carry abrasive loads are often fitted with AR plates to protect the body from wear and extend the truck's operational life.

 

● Manufacturing Industry

Wear Parts: Many wear parts in industrial machinery, such as gears, bearings, and cutting edges, are made from AR steel to ensure they can withstand constant friction and wear.
Moulds and Dies: In manufacturing, AR plates are used to create moulds and dies that must endure high-pressure conditions without wearing out.


● Transportation Industry

Properties of Abrasion Resistant Steel Plate

One of the most remarkable properties of abrasion resistant steel plate is its toughness. This type of steel can be harder than traditional steel while maintaining its toughness. Moreover, it is corrosion-resistant and has high tensile strength. Another important characteristic of these steel plates is their ability to withstand extremely harsh environments, such as mining, agriculture, construction, and manufacturing.

 

Abrasion resistant steel plates are characterized by their capacity to withstand severe abrasion, impact, and heavy load. They can do this by resisting deformation and cracking. This kind of steel is also easy to weld and fabricate, making it highly flexible and adaptable to different industries needs.

 

 

TYPES OF ABRASION-RESISTANT STEEL PLATE

Several types of abrasion resistant steel plates are available in the market. Some of the most popular ones include AR 400, AR 450, AR 500, and AR 600. The numerical value denotes the plate's Brinell hardness, measuring the material's strength. AR 400 has a Brinell hardness of 400, while AR 600 has a Brinell hardness of 600. The higher the Brinell hardness, the more durable the steel plate. It is essential to choose the right type of AR plate depending on the application's requirements, including the type of material, temperature, and level of impact.

What are the differences between abrasion resistant steel plates and ordinary steel plates?

 

 

Different steel grades

All steel plates are poured with molten steel, and the plates are extruded after cooling. According to the thickness, they can be roughly divided into thin plates, medium-thick plates, and extra-thick plates. According to the function and composition, it can be divided into ordinary steel plate, Alloy steel plate, wear-resistant steel plate, stainless steel and so on.

Among them, abrasion resistant steel plates belong to a category of steel plates, which are more excellent in wear resistance, impact resistance and toughness than ordinary steel plates.

 

Different uses

Abrasion resistant steel plates have excellent wear resistance and can be used in high-wear conditions. The service life is incomparable to ordinary steel plates.Their impact resistance and toughness also bring higher safety. Therefore, they are very popular. You can often see abrasion resistant steel plates in mining, machinery, coal mines, docks, cement and other industries. Abrasion resistant steel plates can greatly improve work efficiency and reduce costs.

 

Different rust points

When the abrasion resistant steel plates and ordinary steel plates are not rusted, it is difficult for everyone to distinguish. When the steel plate rusts, it can be distinguished by the traces of rust. The rust water of ordinary steel plates is large, and the rust spots are large and thin, while the rust spots of abrasion resistant steel plates are relatively small and dense.

 

The price is different

Abrasion resistant steel plate are special steels, and the production process and technical requirements are much higher than ordinary steel plates, so the cost is relatively high.
