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


TYPICAL MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Tensile 270,000 psi
Yield 240,000 psi
% of elongation 14%
Reduction in area 35%
BHN hardness 515 BHN
