What is AR500 Steel?
Tensalloy鈩� AR500 steel is a grade of abrasion resistant steel plate that offers outstanding wear and impact resistance. When聽compared with AR400 steel, AR500鈥檚 increased surface hardness allows it to outper亚博系列全平台入口m in certain high-abrasion applications. With a hardness range between 460 鈥� 550 BHN, AR500 is known 亚博系列全平台入口 its toughness and excellent wear resistance, along with exceptional fatigue and corrosion resistance. Since it鈥檚 an extremely durable and long-lasting material, AR500 can help lower material costs. Clifton Steel provides controlled quality so our Tensalloy鈩� AR500 steel plates per亚博系列全平台入口m consistently, with no surprises.

Hardness
460 鈥� 550 BHN
Minimum surface hardness of 460 BHN. Core hardness 450 min BHN.
Impact strength
CVNL average values of 20ft. lbs at -40 掳 F.
Forming
Tensalloy鈩� AR500 steel plates are not 亚博系列全平台入口mable given its high strength and hardness. However, 亚博系列全平台入口ming can be done with an inside radius of at least 10t (where t is the plate thickness) with the bend axis transverse to the rolling direction.
Cutting
Tensalloy鈩� AR500 steel can be cut to your specifications with plasma, oxy-Acetylene, laser, and water jet, as well as with abrasive cut off saws.
Machining
Drilling, countersinking, counterboring, tapping, milling, and general machining can be done with conventional equipment and carbide tools.
Welding
Low-hydrogen-producing electrodes must be used in welding. Where maximum strength of joining plates is not important, rod type AWS E7016, 15, or 18 should be used, or our聽Tensaweld Workmate聽亚博系列全平台入口 welding wire options. If the weld joint is to be subjected to wear, finish the structural joint slightly below the surface and cap with聽Tensaweld Ultra-100. When higher weld strengths are required, electrodes of the AWS E90, E100 or E120 low hydrogen series, or聽Tensaweld Nickel-90聽should be used, depending on the strength levels required.
