Hardox 450
SSABNominal Hardness 450 HBW
The most versatile abrasion resistant plate in the range. 450 HBW delivers roughly 2.5 times the service life of mild steel while remaining straightforward to bend, cut and weld in a normal workshop.

Hardox 500
SSABNominal Hardness 500 HBW
Higher hardness plate for severe sliding abrasion where 450 HBW wears out too quickly, while retaining good workshop formability.
