NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate
NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate is a high-strength, wear-resistant steel plate with high hardness (470–540 HBW), high tensile strength (≥1350–1600 MPa), good low-temperature toughness (impact absorption energy ≥24 J at -20℃), and wear resistance 3–5 times that of ordinary carbon steel plates.
NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate is produced using a quenching and tempering process, with a carbon content ≤0.38% and the addition of alloying elements such as Cr, Mo, and Ni to balance strength and toughness. The thickness is typically 6–60 mm; the surface needs to be milled 1.0–2.5 mm (2.0 mm recommended) before hardness testing.

Features of NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate:
1. High wear resistance: NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate has a Brinell hardness (HBW) of 470–540, and its wear resistance is 3–5 times that of ordinary steels such as Q235B steel plate, making it suitable for high-wear applications (such as crusher liners and excavator buckets).
2. Combination of high strength and toughness: NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate has a tensile strength ≥1350 MPa (some ≥1600 MPa), yield strength ≥1400 MPa, elongation ≥7%, and impact energy at -20℃ KV₂ ≥24 J.
3. Standards: Primarily based on GB/T 24186-2022 (current national standard), with some production according to enterprise standards (such as Q/XGJ); common grades are NM500A and NM500B. Chemical composition: C ≤0.38%, Si ≤0.70%, Mn 1.20–1.80%, P ≤0.015–0.025%, S ≤0.008–0.010%, Cr 0.50–1.80%, Mo 0.20–0.70%, Ni ≤1.20%, trace amounts of B to improve hardenability.
4. Processing limitations: Cold cutting is preferred (waterjet, shearing); hot cutting (plasma/laser) requires preheating to 100–200℃ and slow cooling; flame cutting easily causes cracks; welding requires preheating to 200–300℃, ultra-low hydrogen welding materials, multi-layer multi-pass welding, and post-weld hydrogen removal treatment.
Applications of NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate:
1. Construction Machinery: NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plate is used in excavator bucket plates, bucket teeth, side cutting edges, bulldozer blades, loader buckets and blades, rotary drilling rig drill rods, etc.
2. Mining Machinery: Crusher liners (such as mantles, tooth plates, hammers), scraper conveyor troughs and sides, circular link chains, screen plates, and dump truck bed liners.
3. Metallurgy and Material Handling: Blast furnace hoppers, sintering machine liners, conveyor elbows, chutes, coal mill cylinder liners, and slurry pump casings.
4. Coal and Cement Industry: Coal hoppers, funnels, feed chutes, classifier blades, dust collector flues, and ball mill liners.
5. Other Heavy-Duty Wear-Resistant Components: NM500 Wear-resistant Steel Plates are also used in railway frogs, tank/tractor track plates, port loading and unloading machinery (such as forklift spreaders), and wear-resistant parts for sand and gravel aggregate equipment.
