XAR®
XAR® (eXtra Abrasion Resistant) steels from ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe are the solution for applications where wear is a key factor.
XAR® is available in various grades from 300 HBW to 600 HBW and plate thicknesses from 1/8” to 4” (3 to 100mm), tailored to particular applications, e.g. mining equipment, earthmoving machinery, steel mill and cement plant equipment, agricultural machinery, etc.
XAR® 400, XAR® 450 and XAR® 500 plates can also be supplied as cut-to-length plates in thicknesses up to approx. 3/8” (10mm). Due to their very close thickness tolerances of ±0.008’’ (±0,2 mm) they offer weight reduction benefits as well as advantages in terms of cold forming.
