Fabrication and other recommendations

Recommendations can be found in SSAB’s brochures on www.hardox.com or consult Tech Support, techsupport@ssab.com.

Hardox® Extreme is not intended for further heat treatment. It has obtained its mechanical properties by quenching and when necessary by means of subsequent tempering. 

The properties of the delivery condition cannot be retained after exposure to temperatures in excess of 150ºC. Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the product. Grinding, especially of primer coated plates, may produce dust with high particle concentration.
