AR400, or AR400F steel, is a high-carbon alloy steel with high wear resistance that’s supplied nationwide across our 55+ branches.

It is a high-carbon alloy steel that is perfect for applications that require high wear resistance. It shows good formability, excellent weldability, and good strength.
It has good corrosion resistance and can withstand sliding and impact abrasion. This steel is often used in applications where formability and weldability are a must. One disadvantage of this grade is its fair machinability.
This grade is often used in the material handling equipment, mining, and aggregate industry.
Dump truck liners, storage bins liners, hopper bucket liners and construction equipment are some common applications for this steel grade.
It has fair machinability.
It has excellent weldability.
It is heat treatable.

It has fair machinability.
It has excellent weldability.
It is heat treatable.
It is used where high wear resistance is needed. This includes differ blades and buckets, heavy machinery, and mining machinery.
The Brinell Hardness Number (BHN) of this grade is typically 360 – 440. The Rockwell hardness is 42, class C.
Abrasion resistant steels are classified by their typical Brinell Hardness Number. Consequently, AR400 will have a lower hardness than AR500.
