When equipment faces extreme wear in mining, construction, or recycling, AR450 abrasion-resistant alloy steel delivers unmatched protection. It combats abrasion, impacts, and operational downtime—cutting costs and boosting productivity.
At SteelPro Group, we supply globally trusted AR450 steel, engineered to outlast harsh conditions. Below, discover how AR450 works, where it excels, and our product specifications.
What Is AISI AR450 Steel?
AR450 steel is a high-carbon alloy steel with a surface hardness of 420–470 Brinell hardness (HB). Its mix of carbon, manganese, and boron enhances hardness while maintaining ductility, which helps prevent cracking under stress. Available as hardened plates that meet ASTM and JIS standards, SteelPro Group AR450 is commonly used in mining, construction, and material handling equipment, where abrasion resistance and structural reliability are essential. The steel undergoes quenching and tempering, ensuring resistance to cracking even under repeated impacts.
AR450 Alloy Steel Key Characteristics
Tính chất vật liệu
- Độ cứng cao: Surface hardness of 420–470 HB resists scratches and wear.
- Abrasion Resistance: Handles heavy friction without losing material.
- Độ bền va đập: Strong core absorbs shocks without breaking.
- Chống ăn mòn: Works with coatings for harsh environments.
Performance in Manufacturing
- Khả năng hàn: Good but needs preheating to avoid cracks.
- Khả năng định hình: Moderate. Best for cold-forming.
- Khả năng gia công: Hard to machine. Use carbide tools.

AR450 Steel Process
Forming Process
AR450 steel can be cold-formed at room temperature using methods such as bending, rolling, or stamping. Its hardened surface resists deformation, maintaining structural integrity. However, hot-forming processes (temperatures above 300°C / 570°F) should be avoided, as they may soften the abrasion-resistant surface layer.
Cutting Process
Tham số | Giá trị |
CEV (Carbon Equivalent Value) | 0,45 tối đa |
CET (Critical Cooling Time) | 0.33 max |
PCM (Percentage of Chemical Mixture) | 0.32 max |
- Plasma or Laser Cutting: Ideal for achieving precise edges with minimal heat-affected zones.
- Oxy-Fuel Cutting: Suitable for thicker sections (>25 mm / 1 inch), but requires preheating to 200°C (390°F) to reduce thermal stress and prevent micro-cracks.
- Cắt: Not recommended for plates thicker than 12 mm (0.5 inches) due to rapid tool wear and edge deformation.
Machining Process
AR450 supports standard machining operations like drilling, counterboring, tapping, and milling. However, its high hardness requires carbide or ceramic-tipped tools to ensure efficient machining.
Quy trình hàn
Common welding methods include:
- Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)
- Hàn hồ quang kim loại bằng khí (GMAW)
For minimal distortion, Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) hoặc Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) can be used effectively. Preheating may be required for certain welding applications to prevent cracking due to the material’s high carbon content.
AR400 vs. AR450 vs. AR500: How to Choose?
The selection of abrasion-resistant steel depends on balancing hardness, formability, and cost. Below is a detailed comparison of AR400, AR450, and AR500 grades to guide your decision:
Tài sản | AR400 | AR450 | AR500 |
Độ cứng (HB) | 360–440 | 420–470 | 460–544 |
Khả năng định hình | Xuất sắc | Tốt | Giới hạn |
Chống mài mòn | Vừa phải | Cao | Rất cao |
Trị giá | $ | $$ | $$$ |
When to Choose Each Grade?
- AR400: Low-to-medium abrasion + high formability needs (e.g., agricultural equipment).
- AR450: High abrasion + moderate forming/welding requirements (e.g., excavator buckets, dump truck beds).
- AR500: Extreme wear + minimal shaping (e.g., blast cabinets, armor plating).
