Creusabro
Premium Wear-Resistant Steel
The Creusabro range is produced using a manufacturing process and metallurgy that differ from low-carbon martensitic abrasion-resistant steels.
In-service wear resistance is significantly enhanced by a surface hardening effect of +70 HB, triggered by local plastic deformation caused by rock impacts or the pressure of abrasive particles.
This reaction is known as the TRIP effect (Transformation Induced Plasticity).
Creusabro: Ultimate Performance Against Wear, Heat and Corrosion
Its moderate as-delivered hardness makes it easier to process complex parts in the workshop, without compromising wear resistance in service.
Thanks to its specific metallurgy, Creusabro withstands temperatures up to 450°C and can be hot-formed without complex heat treatment.
Creusabro also offers high corrosion resistance, outperforming standard abrasion-resistant steels in corrosive environments combined with abrasion.
Creusabro: Outperforms Conventional Wear-Resistant Steels
Durable wear parts play a key role in achieving maximum operational performance and avoiding costly machine downtime.
Creusabro steels have proven to outperform conventional water-quenched plates in wear resistance:
- Creusabro 4800 lasts 50 to 100% longer than conventional 400 HB plates.
- Creusabro 6400 lasts 50 to 100% longer than conventional 450 HB steels.
- Creusabro 8000 and Dual last 50 to 100% longer than conventional 500 HB plates.
