CREUSABRO 4800
EASIER TO TRANSFORM, HARDER IN SERVICE

CREUSABRO 4800 offers the best possible balance


between exceptional wear resistance and improved workability.
Application markets of CREUSABRO 4800 are: mining,
quarrying, cement industry, steel production, public works

CREUSABRO 4800 is a high performance wear resistant


steel exhibiting on average a wear resistance 40 - 45 % higher
than conventional 400 HB water quenched steel in optimised
conditions (sufficient impact or pressure).

Metallurgical concept
Abrasion resistance is not exclusively connected to
the hardness of the steel in its as delivered condition.
Its composition and structure strongly influence
the actual performance in service. The Chemical
composition and manufacturing processes applied to
CREUSABRO 4800 develop a metallurgical structure,
which contributes strongly to the improvement of its
wear resistance through the following effects.

CREUSABRO 4800 originality is to be delivered


at an intentionnal limited hardness in order to bring to
subcontracter and manufacturer an easier way to work with.
Bending in easier conditions (limited power requested),
rolling in easier way (once again limited power requested),
machining easier due to homogeneous micro-structure.

Processing information
Drilling:
Can be done with high speed tools, HSSCO type. (ex. AR.2.9.1.8
according to AFNOR, M42 according to AWS) Lubrification
with soluble oil diluted to 20 %.

Rolling:
Has to be done using the following conditions: 30 x th
(temperature of the piece 10 C.) Power necessary to roll
a plate will be about double than a S355 type steel.

Cold bending:
Can be done without any problem when the following
conditions are met:

N
 o mark or scratches in shaped zones,
mainly on extrados face;

B
 evelling by grinding of edge angle
specially on extended skin;

Eventually grinding to remove cutting slight defects;

Minimum internal bending radius (table below);

plate temperature > 10 C.

Welding:
CREUSABRO 4800 can be welded by all traditional welding
processes: manual, semiautomatic under gas, automatic under
fluxes. For welds non exposed to wear, the following welding
rods can be used.
Allow for a tight bending angle to compensate spring back
effect.
