Tough as nails – Creusabro steels for extreme loads

Wear is a major challenge in many industries – especially in quarries, recycling plants or demolition, where machines and components are exposed to enormous loads. Robust materials that are not only resistant but also durable are essential here.

As one of the leading distributors of heavy plate in Europe, Unionstahl offers a comprehensive portfolio of wear-resistant steels – including the high-quality Creusabro® plates from Industeel exclusively for the D-A-CH region. These special steels impress with their unique chemical composition with chromium and molybdenum, which ensures exceptional temperature and wear resistance. Creusabro® screen plates prove their worth particularly in coarse pre-crushing, where abrasion is extremely high, thanks to their enormous resistance and long service life.

In addition to their robustness, Creusabro® steels are easy to process thanks to their moderate hardness as supplied – whether by cutting, edging or welding with conventional tools. At the same time, wear resistance is maintained under real operating conditions, as the so-called trip effect increases with use. Another plus point: Creusabro® 6400 is made from more than 85% recycled scrap and therefore contributes to reducing the carbon footprint.
