100XF Temper Leveled Plate
100XF steel plate has been developed for applications where increased strength-to-weight ratios
are required. It has physical properties similar to those of ASTM A514 even though its manufacturing
process does not require heat treatment.
100XF is available as temper leveled, cut-to-length plate. Temper leveling improves flatness and surface
quality, and eliminates coil memory, all of which enhance laser and plasma cutting quality. It also
offers good weldability, formability, toughness, and weathering resistance. This excellent combination
of properties is possible because of the low-carbon chemistry and the thermo-mechanical controlled
processing used in the manufacture of 100 XF.

Typical Applications
Applications for 100XF include transport trailers, construction equipment, crane booms, mobile manlifts,
agriculture equipment, heavy vehicle frames, and chassis.

 ASTM A-514 Plate
Grade B, Grade H, Grade F and Grade Q
The A-514 plate steels are a group of quenched and tempered alloys with attractive advantages and
characteristics. The most important are high yield strength at 90 or 100 ksi minimum, weldability, and
good toughness at low atmospheric temperatures. Designed for a wide range of structural uses as
well as machinery and equipment, these alloy steels offer help with selecting the optimum in strength,
toughness, corrosion resistance, impact-abrasion resistance, and long-term economy.

Abrasion Resisting Plate
Abrasion Resisting Steel was designed to satisfy the demand for a grade of steel that would give pro-
longed service life where abrasion is the primary cause of failure. The surface hardness of Abrasion
Resisting Steel will vary by grade from 180-500 BRINELL.
Hardox® 450 is an abrasion resistant brand with a hardness of 450 bhn. This brand of abrasion resistant
plate is intended for higher, impact, wear applications where cold-bending and very good weldability
are beneficial. Hardox® 450 is a quenched and tempered produced plate that is used in dump bodies,
crushers, feeders, cutter edges, buckets, etc.

 Manganese Plate (11% - 14% Manganese)
Manganese plate is a nonmagnetic steel that work hardens to a 650 Brinell. It is a 12-Mn austenitic
steel with an exceptionally high level of wear-resistance when subject to work-hardening by shocks
or high pressures in service.
Wear Resistance
Severe wear on the surface has a work-hardening affect on the austenitic structure of this steel. This
leads to an increase from the initially low hardness (about 200 BHN) to a service hardness of at least 500
BHN. This work-hardening maintains itself through in-service life. The underlayers not work-hardened
maintain a very high resistance to shock.

Sizes
Alro's thickness range is 3/16" - 1/2"

Applications
Manganese Plate is the ideal solution for cases where severe wear is combined with shocks or high
pressure capable of work-hardened its austenitic structure. Used in jaws of crushers, hammers or
pulverizers, cutting edges of large excavators, liners of shotblasting units, cores and wall of parpen
moulds, and screens.
Alro stocks Manganese Plate in pattern sizes in 3/16", 1/4", & 3/8".

Alro’s Plasma Cutting System provides tighter tolerances, minimizes
machining on finished parts and provides greater part accuracy than
standard flame cutting.
O2 Plasma means a smaller, heat affected zone and reduced edge
cracking when forming.
PC-based control technology increases control in shape cutting.
Advantages include:

 Safety Plate & Grating Products
SlipNOT® is a surface treatment performed on a variety of metals through a plasma stream deposi-
tions. Plasma stream deposition is the application of a molten metal alloy to a metallic surface. The
extreme temperature of this method assures maximum adhesion to the base surface. It results in a
Martensitic (hard alloy) product. This is not a grit simply rolled or coated onto the base plate!

SlipNOT® can be utilized in the following applications:

 Floors  Walkways  Bridge Decking Ramps

 Floor Armor  Pump Platforms  Ladder Rungs Mezzanines

 Wet Decks  Trench Covers  Pit Covers Stair Treads

 Pump Platforms  Flume Covers  Machine Platforms Catwalks

 Drill Platforms

File Hard
Extreme wear longevity is the product of the Martensitic formation of the super-alloy, allowing a
hardness of up to 62 on the Rockwell “C” scale.

Random Hatch Matrix

Steel Plate

This stacked hatched surface means the continuous presentation of new sharp faces as the surface
& Sheet

slowly wears.

Weldable
In that the wear surface is uncoated steel integral with the base plate, SlipNOT® can be directly
welded to with no surface preparation of any kind.

Bond Strength
The bond strength of SlipNOT® to plate exceeds 4,450 psi. The “coated-on” grit product claims only
710 psi maximum.

Fabrication
Shear, flame cut, drill, and punch right through the face for complete versatility in shop or field.

High Strength Sheet Steels have higher strength properties along with improved formability, weldability
and/or atmospheric corrosion resistance than normally obtained from conventional carbon sheet steels.
These desirable properties are obtained through selected chemical composition and controlled mill
processing. High strength steels lend themselves to applications where weight reduction is a
major factor.

 Cold Rolled Sheets
Commercial Steel (CS) ASTM A1008
These sheets are rolled to a close thickness tolerance and possess a fine surface finish. Cold Rolled
Sheets are suitable for stamping, forming and moderate drawing operations. Very desirable nickel or
chrome plating results can be secured. Also, Cold Rolled Sheets provide an excellent base for baked
enamel and lacquer finishes.

 Galvannealed Sheets
Commercial Quality ASTM A653
Galvannealed sheet is carbon steel coated with zinc on both sides by the continuous hot dip process.
Immediately as the strip exits the coating bath, the zinc coating is subjected to an in-line heat treat-
ment that converts the entire coating to a zinc iron alloy, giving the sheet a better surface for painting.
Normally stocked in an A-60 coating weight.

Sheared Sheet Blanks

Investment conscious customers rely on Alro Steel to provide them with sheared sheet blanks. A bat-
tery of shears, working around the clock, assure availability of material to meet production schedules.
This results in reduced inventory and handling costs, less in-plant scrap accumulations, and provides
customers with quality blanks ready for immediate processing.
