What is HIND HARD 550 Plate?

HIND HARD 550 Plate is an ultra-high hardness wear resistant steel plate developed under the HIND HARD brand by Hindustan Steel Corporation. Designed for extremely abrasive applications, this plate delivers a consistent surface hardness of around 550 BHN — ideal for industries where material impact, cutting, and erosion are constant.

Built as a reliable Indian alternative to costly imported grades like Abrex 550, Dillidur 550, and JFE EH-SP, HIND HARD 550 performs with superior wear life, flatness, weldability, and custom availability.

Key Features

  1. ~550 BHN surface hardness for superior abrasion resistance
  2. Low cost vs. imported plates with same performance
  3. Supplied in stock sizes or cut-to-size forms
  4. Weldable with preheat and compatible filler
  5. Used in crushers, dragline buckets, coal handling, and blades
  6. Available with 3.1 MTC, CE, IBR, PED, and export-ready packing

Typical Applications

HIND HARD 550 is used in industries where conventional AR400/AR500 is not enough:

  • Mining & Earthmoving – Dragline buckets, liner plates, dump trucks
  • Coal & Power Plants – Ash pipelines, coal feeders, impact surfaces
  • Crushing Units – Secondary crusher liners, chute armor
  • Cement Industry – Cyclone separators, raw mill liners
  • Scrap & Shredding – Blade guides, impact walls
  • Defense & Ballistics – Where 550+ BHN is needed under light weight
