High resistant steel Quard® for agriculture
Exploiting soils can be a source of intensive wear, like harvesting and storing crops. And as in agriculture, work cannot wait for another day, the machines used need to be reliable at any time and in all circumstances. Choosing for Quard® becomes then common sense.
3.2-64
width of the plates
Thanks to its hardness and its high resistance to wear, the abrasion resistant steel of NLMK Clabecq has a lifetime more than three times higher compared to the standard structural steel and reduce the weight of the structural element by 40%.
So, when you choose an agricultural machinery, think also to require components made of Quard®.
PRODUCTS
QUARD®
QUARD®
Quard® plates are produced at NLMK Clabecq, where they are treated in a state-of-the-art Quenching and Tempering unit. The slabs used are supplied by the NLMK’s Lipetsk production site. Quard® abrasion resistant plates are delivered with hardness of 400 HB (Quard® 400), 450 HB (Quard® 450), 500 HB (Quard® 500) and 550 HB (Quard® 550), with thicknesses ranging from 3.2 mm to 64 mm and widths from 1,500 to 3,100 mm.
QUEND®
QUEND®
Quend® is produced at NLMK Clabecq in Belgium, where it is rolled and then quenched and tempered in a recent and modern heat treatment unit. The production is made from slabs coming from the NLMK’s Lipetsk production site. The Quend® high yield strength steel plates are delivered with a yield strength of 700 MPa (Quend® 700), 900 MPa (Quend® 900), 960 MPa (Quend® 960) and 1100 MPa (Quend® 1100) with thicknesses ranging from 4 mm to 64 mm and widths from 1,500 to 3,100 mm.
They are designed for lifting and hoisting equipment, truck chassis, handling equipment, trailers, and other applications where high structural strength is of critical importance.
