TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE

Hardness & Toughness Data

Hardox® 400 is specified by Brinell hardness and SSAB product guarantees. Typical mechanical values remain reference data.

Hardox® 400 Verification

SSAB performs Brinell hardness tests according to EN ISO 6506-1. For thin sheet below 2.5 mm, hardness is derived from guaranteed tensile strength. For impact testing, confirm the required temperature, sample size and acceptance conditions with the order.
