Used in high-impact applications, Quenched & Tempered Plate is produced by intense heating of the plate, and then cooling processes, which produce a product to a specific degree of hardness. Often used in transport, mining and structural applications. Ideal in applications where the steel will be subjected to high impact situations, and requires a particular degree of strength to ensure the product lasts.

Quenched and Tempered Steel Plate is available in thicknesses from 5 mm to 60 mm – BISALLOY®, a high-alloy, low carbon steel plate that offers great formability, excellent weldability, and high-quality notch toughness.

There are three grades, each of which has typical uses:

• BISALLOY® Structural 80, which has a tensile strength of about 830 MPa and is commonly used for transport and mining equipment, for excavator buckets, and bridges.
• BISALLOY® Wear 400, which has a tensile strength of about 1320 MPa. It is used for cutting edges, dump truck wear liners, chutes, screw conveyors, and deflector plates.
• BISALLOY® Wear 500, with a tensile strength of around 1640 MPa, is also used for cutting edges, dump truck wear liners, and chutes, as well as earthmoving buckets and other types of wear liners.
