HS460 Wear Plate
Provides a unique combination of chemical analysis, heat treating and oil quenching. This combination gives HS460 a wear resistance that is 50% higher than conventional 500 BHN water quenched plate. This improved wear resistance can be attributed to the combination of the very fine distribution of Chromium and Molybdenum carbides reinforcing the plate structure and the plates work hardening capability.
HS460 can be formed and machined. Please contact us for details.
HS460 is available in thicknesses from 1/4” to 4”
HS460 can be cut by gas, abrasive water jet, laser, or plasma. For thicknesses up to 1 1/2”no preheating is required so long as plate temperature is 65 degrees. For thicknesses over 1 1/2″, plates must be pre-heated to 300 degrees. Laser and water-jetting are recommended. Shearing is not recommended.
