Hardox® 400

The resistance of steel to wear and abrasion is evident throughout the thickness.

Abrasion-resistant Hardox® 400 steel with a nominal hardness of 400 Brinell units. The wear resistance of Hardox® 400 steel is evident throughout its thickness.

Such a combination of high strength with good bendability and weldability makes it possible to manufacture from this steel constructions subject to moderate wear.

Increasing the level of wear resistance due to the replacement of the steel grade from Hardox® 400 to Hardox® 450.

Size series

Hardox® 400 steel is supplied in the form of wide-rolled sheets with a thickness of 4.0 – 130 mm and in sheets with a thickness of 2.0 – 8.0 mm. The width of the wide-rolled sheet made of Hardox® 400 steel reaches 3,350 mm, and the length is 14,630 mm. Hardox® 400 steel coils are available in widths up to 1,650 mm and lengths up to 16,000 mm.

Mechanical properties

Mechanical properties

Steel brand Thickness (mm) Hardness (HBW) Typical value of yield strength (MPa), without guarantee
Rolled roll Hardox® 400 2.0 to 8.0 370 – 430 1100
Wide Rolled sheet Hardox® 400 4.0 – 130.0 370 – 430 1100

 

1) Brinell hardness (HBW) according to EN ISO 6506-1 on a surface milled 0.5 – 3 mm deep. At least one test sample from each melt and for every 40 tons. Deviations of the nominal thickness of the rolled sheet upon delivery from the thickness of the control sample, with which the hardness tests are carried out, do not exceed +/- 15 mm. For sheet, the Brinell hardness is determined in accordance with EN ISO 6506-1 on each individual heat treatment per roll. Hardness is measured on the milled surface 0.3 – 2 mm below the surface.

Hardox steel is hardened throughout its thickness. The hardness in the center is at least 90% of the guaranteed surface hardness.

Indicators of impact viscosity

Brand min. Impact work (J) of a transverse specimen 10×10 mm with a V-notch
Hardox® 400 wide and rolled steel 45 J/-40 C

1) Impact viscosity is measured by agreement. With a thickness in the range of 6 – 11.9 mm, reduced Sharpie samples with a V-shaped notch are used. ISO EN 148 impact tests are performed for each melt and thickness group. Average of three trials.

Tolerances

Thickness

Thickness tolerances correspond to the guaranteed parameters of Hardox® steel. The guaranteed parameters of the Hardox® steel wide sheets meet the requirements of the EN 10 029 class A standard, and the rolled products meet ½ the requirements of the EN 10 051 standard.

 

Length and width

According to the SSAB range. Tolerances for flat sheets meet the standards of the SSAB company for sheets with uncut edges, which in turn meet the requirements of the EN 10029 standard. Tolerances for coils meet the requirements of the EN 10051 standard. Products with tighter tolerances can be supplied on request.

 

Form

The tolerances of broad-sheet products meet the requirements of the EN 10029 standard, and of the rolled products of the EN 10051 standard.

 

Flatness

Flat flatness tolerances correspond to the guaranteed parameters of Hardox® steel according to class D, which exceed the requirements of the EN 10 029 standard. Flatness tolerances of coiled products correspond to the guaranteed parameters of Hardox® steel according to class A, which are stricter than the tolerances according to the EN 10 standard.

 

Surface quality

In accordance with the requirements of the EN 10 163-2 standard for class A, subclass 1.

Flexible

Flexible properties of wide-rolled steel correspond to the guaranteed parameters of Hardox® steel when bent according to class E. Flexible properties of rolled products correspond to guaranteed parameters of Hardox® steel when bent according to class A.
