Tubes with extreme wear resistance
The newHardox Tube 500 range provides
the same hardness and toughness as
Hardox wear plate, but in circular form. It
was developed to provide performance
in any application where high wear
resistance in combination with a lighter
product solution is beneficial.
“The new Hardox Tube 500 range
completes the existing Hardox family
product range,” said Fredrik Mikaelsson,
manager for tubes and sections at
SSAB. “We have a long experience of
developing wear-resistant steel tubes.
The final properties are set after tube
rolling and welding, which guarantees
consistency as well as high hardness
and toughness qualities, just like all
Hardox products.”
Hardox Tube 500 is suitable for
transporting all types of abrasive
materials, such as wet concrete, soil,
gravel and ore slurry. Its extreme wear
resistance allows for a lighter product
with a long service life. It is claimed
that using the tube can increase the
competitiveness of certain products by
significantly extending their service life.
The tube is available from stock in
88.9 to 133mm diameters, and different
material thicknesses. Custom tubes in
thinner materials and other diameters
are also available.
