Choose the right Hardox wear plates

Hardox wear plates are designed to provide excellent performance and long wear life. You can choose the right wear plate for the specific application and demand to make the best of both effects.

Hardox wear plates have an impressive range of types, grades, widths and thicknesses to choose from. Breaking through the previous thickness limitation, we can now provide thickness from 0.7 to 160mm. This advantage, coupled with the new size series and the ability to act as structural steel, allows Hardox wear plates for greater innovation and design options.

However, regardless of grade or thickness, you must consider the balance between hardness, toughness and processability. Take a look at the following features and sizes we supply for Hardox wear plates.
