HiAce (equivalent) is a corrosion-resistant wear plate designed to meet the demands of industries where both corrosion and abrasive wear are prevalent. Unlike standard wear-resistant steels, HiAce integrates advanced alloy compositions that slow down the corrosion process without sacrificing hardness or wear resistance. This innovative composition provides a versatile solution for equipment used in extremely harsh environments such as waste management, dredging, mining, energy production, and industrial processing.
HiAce is based on a low-alloy wear-resisting steel platform, further enhanced by specific elements designed to raise the steelโs self-corrosion potential and reduce the self-corrosion current density. These features minimize the accelerating effects of corrosion on wear, providing both outstanding wear resistance and an extended operational lifespan in corrosive settings. With a nominal hardness similar to high-quality wear-resistant steels, HiAce achieves an exceptional balance between hardness and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for high-stress environments without risk of premature wear.

The HiAce Corrosion Resistant Wear Plate is extensively used across industries where materials are exposed to both abrasive forces and corrosive agents. Below is a breakdown of its applications in specific sectors:
A. Waste Management and Sanitation
HiAce is highly suited for garbage trucks, recycling facilities, and sanitation containers. Waste materials, particularly organic and acidic substances, can rapidly degrade standard steel. HiAceโs corrosion resistance ensures that sanitation trucks and waste containers retain durability and longevity, reducing replacement frequency and lowering maintenance costs. Its strength and anti-corrosive qualities extend to other waste-to-energy applications, where components may be exposed to both high temperatures and corrosive chemicalsย .
B. Marine Dredging and Pipeline Construction
In dredging and marine pipeline applications, materials are continually exposed to saltwater, mud, and abrasive particles. HiAceโs superior resistance to both wear and corrosion allows dredging equipment and pipelines to function efficiently over extended periods, significantly reducing the need for frequent replacements. Its durability makes it a prime choice for use in dredging blades, suction pipes, and underwater structural components.
C. Mining and Quarrying
Mining equipment such as crushers, conveyers, and screen decks experience high levels of abrasion due to constant contact with rocks and minerals. When these surfaces are also exposed to moisture or corrosive ores, they degrade even faster. HiAceโs composition combats both the abrasive wear from mineral contact and the corrosive effects from environmental exposure, ensuring longer-lasting performance in these rigorous applications. It is commonly used in mining chutes, excavator buckets, and grinding mills .
D. Energy Production and Biomass Facilities
HiAce is an ideal choice for energy production facilities, including biomass plants, waste-to-energy stations, and even traditional power plants where equipment often faces high temperatures and corrosive byproducts. HiAce can be used to line boilers, ash handling systems, and chimneys, where both heat and chemical exposure are factors. By maintaining its wear and corrosion resistance in high-temperature environments, HiAce supports more efficient and economical operations, reducing downtime and extending the lifecycle of key machinery components .
E. Industrial Processing
In various manufacturing and processing applications, particularly in the pulp, paper, and chemical sectors, wear-resistant steel is crucial for hoppers, chutes, and mixing drums. HiAce ensures that these components can endure both the physical abrasion from constant movement and the chemical corrosion from materials being processed, leading to enhanced productivity and reduced costs over time.
โขCorrosion Resistance: The addition of special alloys in HiAce, such as chromium and nickel, increases its resistance to acidic and corrosive environments. This quality makes it superior to typical wear-resistant steels when used in conditions involving chemicals, moisture, and other corroding agents.
โขWear Durability: HiAce exhibits wear resistance on par with other premium wear-resistant steels while offering enhanced longevity. This makes it ideal for industries where components face constant abrasion in addition to chemical exposure.
โขImpact and Temperature Performance: HiAce can maintain its structural integrity at high temperatures, performing efficiently in applications with temperatures reaching 800ยฐC. This thermal stability makes it especially valuable in energy and heavy industrial sectors where high-temperature processes are common.
HiAce provides several significant benefits across these industries:
โขExtended Equipment Life: The corrosion resistance combined with wear durability allows for extended equipment life, minimizing the frequency of costly replacements.
โขEnhanced Efficiency: With HiAce protecting key machinery components, industries benefit from fewer maintenance interruptions, ensuring more consistent and productive operations.
โขCost Savings: HiAceโs durability translates into lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, and increased overall efficiency. These benefits support lower operational expenses, making HiAce an economical choice for long-term use in demanding environments.
