Bennox SS10 / 200

Bennox SS10 / 200 is a high-carbon steel which is suitable for hard wearing
applications which are not sufficiently severe to warrant more sophisticated
steels. This material is used for liner plates and scraper blades, preferably fitted
by drilling and bolting.

NORMAL ANALYSIS
0.4% - 0.55% C, 0.7% - 1.0% Mn, 0.15% - 0.35% Si

TYPICAL HARDNESS
+- 200 BHN. (Not measured or guaranteed).

FLAME CUTTING
May be cut with pre-heating recommended for thicker sections.

WELDABILITY
Bennox SS10 / 200 is a difficult steel to weld due to its high carbon equivalent.

Welding should be used for joining purposes only and is not recommended under
high stress conditions.

Hydrogen controlled electrodes should be used with a minimum preheat of

250oC. For austenitic electrodes, use a minimum preheat of 150oC. Cooling
rates after welding should be controlled.

SHEARING
Bennox SS10 / 200 can be sheared in thicknesses up to 25 mm, provided
sufficient power is available. Cutting edges must be sharp and clearances set
correctly.

PUNCHING
Bennox SS10 / 200 up to 12 mm can be punched provided tools are sharp and
clearances are set correctly.
