Tuffbraze 500
Tuffbraze 500 is the ultimate in high hardness abrasion resistant plate. It is engineered for cut-and-weld applications where severe, low-stress (smaller particle) abrasion is the main cause of failure.

Benefits of Tuffbraze 500

  • A special grade of 500 Brinell, not generic
  • Quench and tempered to improve machinability and reduce brittleness
  • Superior abrasion resistance
  • Special nickel added chemistry providing deep hardening, not surface only
  • High toughness for resistance to fracture, the most common wear problem, through:
    • Clean Steel Technology
    • Calcium treatment, promoting inclusion shape control
    • Silicon killing, fine grain practice and vacuum degassing
