Alloys International's AbrasaPlate® is a high-quality chrome-carbide weld overlay (CCO) wear plate, offering higher abrasion resistance compared to stainless steel and quenched-and-tempered (Q&T) steel. Available in various dimensions of hardfacing overlay on a mild steel backing plate, AbrasaPlate® is easy to work with — it can be rolled, welded, formed, and cut — with different grades available to suit different applications.

What is AbrasaPlate® made from?
AbrasaPlate® is a chrome-carbide weld overlay (CCO) hardfacing clad onto a mild steel backing plate.

How does AbrasaPlate® compare to stainless steel or Q&T steel?
AbrasaPlate® offers higher abrasion resistance compared to both stainless steel and quenched-and-tempered (Q&T) steel, and typically extends service life a minimum of 4 times, up to 10 times, over Q&T 360 depending on the application.

What sizes and forms is AbrasaPlate® available in?
AbrasaPlate® is available in standard sheets up to 2.2 x 3.0 metres, or cut to size, with optional welded studs or drilled holes. It's also available in sheet form, as replaceable wear liners, or as full fabricated assemblies.
