Tuffbraze

Tuffbraze is a high quality abrasion resistant liner plate engineered to provide excellent resistance to a variety of severe service abrasive applications where ductility and fabrication may be required.

Benefits of Tuffbraze

A special grade of 440 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
