General Characteristics of AR 500 Steel Plates
TITUS AR 500 Steel Plates are heat treated and intended for severe wear applications requiring a high degree of abrasion resistance.
Originally developed for extreme wear applications including ballistics, the Titus AR 500 steel plates combine a high carbon level with Titus’s proven manganese, chrome/nickel chemistry to produce a steel with up to ten times the wear resistance of ordinary steel.
AR 500 Steel Plates: Heat Treated for Higher Hardness Rating
Titus AR 500 steel plates are heat treated to provide a Brinell hardness range of 477 to 534 with a typical Brinell hardness of 514. Abrasion resistance for the AR500 steel plates is typically 5:1 compared to mild steels.
