MELBOURNE, Australia<\/span>, Nov. 24, 2021<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Leading global steel manufacturer and supplier, SSAB, is helping Australian businesses withstand wear challenges in the most severe conditions with the Hardox\u00ae HiAce range. Specially engineered for applications in acidic and corrosive environments, Hardox\u00ae HiAce abrasion-resistant steel has the toughness it takes to perform as a structural material in garbage trucks, recycling containers, tipper and dump bodies, and other heavy-duty equipment.<\/p>\n

Hardox HiAce<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

A <\/a>2019 report<\/a><\/u> found that Australia<\/span> produced 7.5 million tonnes of hazardous waste in a two-year period, which was a 34% uptick on the previous generation and represented 11% of all waste generated nationwide. This number is only rising as Australia<\/span> grapples with surging volumes of e-Waste<\/a><\/u>: 290,000 tonnes of e-waste material has been diverted to landfills to date, and an additional 100,000 tonnes of solar panel waste is forecast to enter the waste stream by 2035.<\/p>\n

In these environments, the steel in truck and tipper bodies, containers and other equipment can come under attack from different types of acids, which have low pH levels, salt-containing chlorides, or sulfates that can lead to general corrosion. This acidity oxidizes the steel’s surface, making it more prone to wear. Therefore, Australian businesses require tougher equipments to protect profitability, equipment condition, service life, and the environment.<\/p>\n

“Australia’s<\/span> harsh climate and growing volumes of hazardous waste have created the perfect storm for corrosive wear. Hardox\u00ae HiAce is a true wear fighter for organizations looking to protect their equipments, especially in the acidic or corrosive environments that threaten waste management,” said Matthew Spiteri<\/span>, Country manager for Australia<\/span> and New Zealand<\/span>.<\/i><\/p>\n

Hardox\u00ae HiAce: Australia’s<\/span> ace in corrosion-resistant wear steel<\/b><\/p>\n

Hardox\u00ae HiAce has been developed to withstand challenges posed to steel in waste recovery and recycling. The corrosion-resistant steel plate drastically slows down the oxidation process, allowing the full hardness of the material to counteract wear. Hardox\u00ae HiAce performs the same as 450 HBW steel in pH-neutral environments. In low pH levels, it can extend equipment service life up to 3 times longer compared to 400 HBW steel.<\/p>\n

Hardox\u00ae HiAce’s increased wear resistance also allows for the use of thinner plates without jeopardizing service life \u2014 translating to more payload when fully loaded and, when traveling empty, more fuel savings and fewer CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n

Hardox\u00ae HiAce: available across Australia<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Hardox\u00ae HiAce corrosion-resistant wear steel has been embraced by businesses across the country. One example is Bruce Rock Engineering (BRE), which implemented Hardox\u00ae HiAce into its new Super Quad mining trailer combination for iron ore transport.<\/p>\n

BRE used Hardox\u00ae HiAce in the Super Quad’s \ufb02oor plate and the trailer sides, which has effectively extended the life of trailer bodies \u2014 even in tough climates like Western Australia’s<\/span> Pilbara Region. Hardox\u00ae HiAce has also lightened the load: the 60m<\/span> Super Quad road trains have a payload up to 141t in order to maximize capacity.<\/p>\n

“We never hesitated for a minute before introducing Hardox\u00ae HiAce into a Super Quad mining trailer combination for iron ore transport. Changing from Hardox 450\u00ae to Hardox\u00ae HiAce hasn’t caused any challenges in the workshop. All that has changed is the higher resistance towards corrosive material,” said Brenton Verhoogt, Operations Manager at Bruce Rock Engineering.<\/i><\/p>\n
