HARDOX 500 SHEET
General Product Description

The bendable, weldable and highly abrasion-resistant steel.
Hardox 500 is a bendable and weldable abrasion-resistant steel, with a nominal hardness of 500 HBW. Suitable for applications that
demand higher wear resistance.
Hardox 500 increases payload and increases service life while maintaining good processability with guaranteed impact toughness
when specified (Hardox 500 Tuf).
Dimension Range
Hardox 500 sheet are available in thicknesses 3.0 - 6.5 mm. Hardox 450 Sheet is available in widths up to 1600 mm and lengths up to
16000 mm. More detailed information on dimensions is provided in the dimension program.

1)
For thicknesses between 6 - 11.9 mm, subsize Charpy V-specimens are used. The specified minimum value is then proportional to the cross-sectional
area of the test specimen, compared to a full-size specimen (10 x 10 mm). Impact testing according to ISO EN 148 per heat and thickness group. Average of
three tests.
2)
Single value minimum 70% of specified average. Impact test is performed from 6 mm.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining
Recommendations can be found in SSAB’s brochures at www.hardox.com or consult Tech Support, techsupport@ssab.com.
Hardox 500 and Hardox 500 Tuf are not intended for further heat treatment. It has obtained its mechanical properties by quenching
and when necessary by means of subsequent tempering. The properties of the delivery condition cannot be retained after exposure
to temperatures in excess of 250ºC. Hardox sheets can be welded and thermal cut in room temperature without pre-heating, all
common welding processes can be used.
Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on this product.
Grinding, especially of primer coated plates, may produce dust with a high particle concentration.
