Duroxite® plate is a chromium carbide plate produced by welding a wear-resistant metallurgical overlay onto a ductile steel base plate. The chemical composition includes 25% to 40% chromium and 3% to 5.5% carbon. This particular combination results in a dense microstructure of primary M7C3 carbides. Surface hardness up to 62 HRC. This chromium carbide overlay plate is intended to resist heavy abrasive wear from sand, dirt and other materials. It works in high-heat industrial environments up to 350°C without losing its mechanical properties.
One feature of these chromium carbide overlay plates is the uniform wear resistance. This resistance remains the same from the surface down to 75% depth of the cladding. The face is hard, but the mild steel backing means the material can be rolled, cold-formed, or plasma-cut for different uses. It is often welded directly onto heavy equipment in the field. Stress-relief cracks naturally occur during the cladding process. These cracks do not penetrate the base steel. This helps the chromium carbide wear plates maintain structural integrity when they face high impact during operations.

Industries Using Chromium Carbide Plates
Chromium carbide plates protect critical equipment from extreme abrasion, extending service life in demanding mining, cement, and power generation operations.
• Mining and Quarrying Chutes, hopper liners, and excavator buckets face heavy abrasion. These plates stop surface wear from raw ore and rock movement.
• Cement Manufacturing Raw material handling, cyclones, and fan blades degrade quickly from dust. Overlay plates extend the service life of these components.
• Power Generation Coal pulverized pipes and exhauster blades suffer constant erosion. Using chromium carbide prevents frequent maintenance shutdowns in mills.
Top Reasons to choose Carbide overlay plates - Duroxite
Advantages of Chromium Carbide Wear Plates
Chromium carbide wear plates offer high-temperature strength, long service life, and superior abrasion resistance, reducing maintenance needs and downtime.
• Chromium carbide wear plates retain their strength and performance in environments reaching 600°C, making them suitable for high-temperature operations.
• Their long lifespan and reduced need for replacement make them more economical than standard steel components over time.
• The plates deliver outstanding protection against intense sliding abrasion caused by minerals, dust, and other harsh particles.
• These properties of heat resistance, durability and abrasion protection lead to lower maintenance costs and equipment downtime.
FAQ's
It is a wear plate manufactured by SSAB. It features a hard, chromium carbide overlay welded onto a mild steel backing plate.
This is a steel base plate clad with a flux-cored weld wire layer. The top layer contains hard chromium carbides.
The surface hardness typically ranges between 55 and 65 HRC. This depends on the specific product grade used.
Yes. You can weld them from the backside using standard structural steel welding procedures and appropriate consumables.
Duroxite 100 works well in mining applications. It is subject to severe sliding wear from the earth, rocks and abrasive minerals that are transported in the normal course of its operations.
