[QUOTE="Tim Howard, post: 6548459, member: 65586"] Iv'e been using 4 and 500 wear plate for about 25 years. 500 is difficult to drill without special drills or tolling but 400 is not too bad and has lower carbon content. All my machine brackets are now 400 which needs a big radius when bending but welds fine. I use 500 for wearing parts which also welds fine with an ordinary SG3 wire. I have tried hardox 600 but found it too hard to drill and of little benefit on wear, it can also be a bit more brittle. [/QUOTE]
