Hardox® HiAce
General Product Description
Hardox® HiAce is an ace at fighting both abrasive wear and corrosion.
It features the same excellent properties as Hardox® 450, with a nominal hardness of 450 HBW.
Hardox® HiAce is a true wear fighter, especially in acidic corrosive environments that threaten to eat away at your equipment. This corrosion-resistant steel
plate helps to meet the challenges of corrosive wear environments found in municipal and industrial waste management: garbage trucks, containers and
wear surfaces exposed to acid in waste and recycling facilities, as well as equipment operating in landfills; recycling, waste-to-energy plants and biomass
facilities, paper and pulp mills, mining and quarrying, agricultural applications and forestry as well as process industries.
Dimension Range
Hardox® HiAce is available as plate in thicknesses of 0.157" - 3.937". Hardox HiAce is available in widths up to 78.74" and lengths up to 575.98". More
detailed information on dimensions is provided in the dimension program.

will not deviate more than +/- 0.590" from the thickness of the test specimen used for hardness testing. For sheet the Brinell hardness test is according to EN ISO 6506-1 on each heat treatment
individual/coil. Hardness is measured on a milled surface 0.012 - 0.079" below surface.
Hardox® wear plate is through-hardened. Minimum core hardness is 90 % of the guaranteed minimum surface hardness.

Delivery Conditions
The delivery condition is Q or QT (Quenched or Quenched and Tempered). Hardox® HiAce is delivered with sheared or thermally cut edges.
Hardox® wear plate is not intended for further heat treatment. It has obtained its mechanical properties by quenching and when necessary by means of
subsequent tempering. The properties of the delivery condition cannot be retained after exposure to temperatures in excess of 482ºF .
Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on this product. Grinding, especially of primer
coated plates, may produce dust with a high particle concentration.
