Abramax® Cr – wear-resistant steel for Lindner Urraco knives
Abramax® Cr is the most advanced material from the Abraservice (SSAB) portfolio, specially developed for exceptional resistance to wear, high temperatures and corrosion.
It is available in two quality variants:
- Abramax® 420 Cr – hardness ≈ 400 HBW, yield strength 1,000 MPa, elongation 12% and impact strength at –200 °C approx. 40 J.
- Abramax® 520 Cr – hardness ≈ 500 HBW, yield strength 1,200 MPa, elongation 12%, impact strength at –200 °C approx. 45 J.
These steels are available in thicknesses from 4 to 80 mm and in sheet dimensions of 2,000 × 6,000 mm. They are characterized by excellent properties in cold forming, machining and welding, while maintaining a stable microstructure even during bending and heat treatment.
🛠️ Why Abramax® Cr is the Ideal Material for Urraco Knives?
On the Eurotools.eu website (Lindner Urraco® section), you’ll find a wide range of replacement knives, counter-knives, shredding modules, and other components. Knives for shredders such as the Lindner Urraco, which are exposed to intense abrasion, are the perfect application for Abramax® Cr:
- Extreme hardness of up to 500 HBW extends knife lifespan compared to standard steels, especially when processing wood biomass, waste, or construction materials.
- High-temperature resistance, essential in heavy friction and abrasion, reduces the frequency of tool replacements and increases machine uptime.
- Excellent strength and toughness, preventing knife cracking on impact—common when encountering hard materials like stones or metal fragments.
- Outstanding workability – Abramax® Cr plates can be precisely cut, machined, and welded, enabling Eurotools to deliver exact OEM tools to European customers, matching the dimensions and specifications of Lindner replacement parts.
