durostat® can be welded without problems. Due to the relatively low carbon content pre-heating is not necessary for small thicknesses |
As a result of their high hardness, durostat® steels have a wear resistance many times higher than that of conventional steels. |
Due to the high hardness compared to conventional steels, the thickness of durostat® plates can be reduced significantly. This leads to lower dead-weights and thus higher payloads. |
durostat® up to 30mm are produced online by accelerated cooling directly after hot rolling. Thus, a thin homogeneous secondary scale is built, which is easy to remove compared to furnace scale from conventional hardening. |
