Wear-resistant plate: NM400, NM450, and NM500 in practice

Wear plate is selected for abrasion service—not every “hard” plate fits every application. NM grades differ in hardness, impact, and welding behaviour.

Typical uses

  • NM400 — moderate abrasion, good balance of price and life
  • NM450 — heavier wear in chutes, hoppers, and liners
  • NM500 — severe abrasion where thickness and weight allow

What to send us

Describe the equipment, thickness, and whether you need cutting or bending. We will confirm grade availability and recommend an NM level that matches your service—not always the highest number on the datasheet.
