NM450 is a high-strength, wear-resistant steel with exceptional hardness and durability. With a nominal hardness of up to 450 HBW, it excels in high-wear applications such as mining, construction, and material handling equipment. Its exceptional impact and wear resistance helps extend the service life of machinery and components. NM450 is also renowned for its good weldability and formability, allowing for flexible manufacturing. This steel grade is well-suited for harsh environments, ensuring reliability and cost-effectiveness in demanding industrial operations. Our NM450 can achieve a yield strength of 1280 MPa and a tensile strength of 1490 MPa, with a Brinell hardness ranging from 420-480 HBW, typically at 452 HBW. Our NM450 is benchmarked against SSAB’s HARDOX 450 series.
