What is Hardox^® wear plate?

Hardox^® wear plate is the world’s number-one abrasion-resistant steel that is hard and tough from the surface to its core. It can act as a wear plate, or a load-bearing component in many applications. Its hardness is unique to the Hardox^® brand, due to the exclusive hardening process. Hardox^® wear plate boasts a longer life, and a more consistent material than traditional AR plates.

The durability of Hardox^® wear plate allows you to design structures that are not only wear-resistant, but strong and lightweight. This abrasion-resistant steel can be bent, formed and welded without losing its properties. It keeps a structure in shape without the structure becoming deformed.

Unique Hardox^® wear plate is excellent for:

• Conveyors
• Dump Truck Bodies
• Loading Buckets & Bulldozers
• Excavation Buckets
• Chutes
• Crushers
• Grading Blades

The Hard Facts

Still not sure if you should choose Hardox^® wear plate? This is why it should be your only choice:

• Hardox^® steel can take heavy blows without becoming deformed.

• Hardox^® wear plate can extend the service life of your equipment.
• Hardox^® steel features hardness throughout the plate, not just on the surface, and as a result, resists becoming brittle.
• The wear-resistant steel can be thinner, which reduces vehicle weight. This contributes to lower fuel costs, increases truck payload, and allows fleets to carry more loads using the same vehicles.
