Workshop and fabrication guides

SSAB®'s own cutting, welding, bending and machining recommendations for Hardox® wear plate.

Hardox® is designed to be workshop friendly, but the correct process window matters: consumables, preheat, interpass temperature, heat input and bending radii. These SSAB® brochures are the same guidance BSF's welders work to in the shop. If your team fabricates Hardox® in-house, these documents pay for themselves on the first cracked bend or failed weld.
