Abrasion-Resistant Steel Plate
AS-Rolled AR Steels

AR Medium
AR Medium covers carbon-manganese steel plates with abrasion resistance superior to that of most structural quality carbon steels. Plates are intended for moderate wear applications where they offer improved wear resistance comparable to an as-rolled structural carbon steel. These plates are not intended for structural applications and should not be used for structural or main load-bearing members. These plates can be ordered to AR 200 or AR 235, depending on the producing mill's capabilities.
Chemical Requirements:

AR 400F
AR 400F steel plates are premium abrasion-resistant heat-treated plates exhibiting through-hardening, improved forming and welding capabilities. Plates are suitable for mining, forestry and construction applications that require a good level of abrasion resistance. Each producing mill has its own proprietary chemical composition and heat treating process. Mill specific specifications are available upon request.
Chemical Requirements:

Mechanical Requirements:
HBW range of 360 - 440
AR 500
AR 500 steel plates are premium abrasion-resistant heat treated plates exhibiting through-hardening, improved forming and welding capabilities. Plates are suitable for mining, forestry and construction applications that require an extreme level of abrasion resistance. Each producing mill has its own proprietary chemical composition and heat treating process. Mill-specific specifications are available upon request.
