Hardox® 400

Hardox® 400 is a trusted steel in the Hardox® wear plate family, with a heritage of hardness and toughness going all the way back to 1974, when Hardox® was launched as the world’s first bendable wear steel. This allowed for reliable performance both in the workshop and in operation. Plates in Hardox® 400 come in thicknesses from 2 to 130 mm (0.079 to 5.118”). This grade is also available as pipes or tubes and round bars. Hardox® 400 is as easy for fabricators to work as any mild steel. There are several reasons: The steel is very clean and has consistent properties, meaning it behaves in a predictable way every time. It also has a lean chemical composition, which gives it excellent welding properties. Hardox® 400 can be bent with tight bending radiuses, which sets Hardox® steel apart from other AR steels. The steel’s wear performance and toughness in combination with its workshop-friendliness makes Hardox® 400 an industry legend.
