Description
QUARD 500 Plates
QUARD 500 Plates is a Martensitic Abrasion Resistant Steel, with an average Hardness of 500 HBW. Its very high resistance to abrasive wear and impact makes it ideal where long service life is required with the combination of superior hardness and strength, Quard 500 is an optimal choice for the recycling and mining industry.
QUARD is a WEAR RESISTANT STEEL or ABRASION RESISTANT STEEL known for its excellent resistance to abrasion and impact. It is commonly used in applications that require durable and wear-resistant materials, such as construction equipment, mining machinery, and transportation components. aS A high-strength steel, QUARD offers a balance of hardness and toughness, making it suitable for withstanding harsh environments and extending the lifespan of the products it is used in.
QUARD plates are delivered with conventional hardness of 400HB (QUARD 400), 450HB (QUARD 450), and 500HB (QUARD 500) and 550HB (QUARD 550).
QUARD is available with thicknesses ranging from 3.2 mm to 64 mm and widths from 1,500 to 3,100 mm.

Delivery Conditions :
Our Quard plates are supplied as standard in the shotblasted and primed condition. In order to maintain a good weldability and laser cutting performance, a low zinc silicate primer is applied. Plates can also be delivered unpainted.
Heat Treatment :
Quard 500 receives its properties by quenching and when applicable by subsequent tempering. The properties of the delivery condition can not be retained after exposure at service or preheating temperatures above 250 °C. Quard 500 is not intended for any further heat treatment.
