Description: CREUSABRO® 8000 is a high performance wear resistant steel, exhibiting a wear resistance of 50% higher than that of conventional 500 HB water quenched steel. CREUSABRO® 8000 is using an innovative concept, based on a unique combination of chemical analysis and heat treatment procedures (oil quenching). This confers to the steel an improved wear resistant by the contribution of:- a very fine distribution of chromium and molybdenum microcarbides reinforcing the microstructure with the same principal as composite materials
- a very efficient work hardening capability in service, coming from a metallurgic effect called TRIP effect (Transformation Induced by Plasticity).
In addition to its high wear resistance, CREUSABRO® 8000 still maintains a very good aptitude to processing, far much better than that of 500 HB water quenched. Application markets of CREUSABRO® 8000 are : mines, quarries, cement industries, steel making, publics works.Information provided by manufacturer. |
