Description of the case

Previous Material: AR 450 and Duroxite® 100
Previous service life: 33 hours

New material: Duroxite® 101
New service life: 200 hours

We made the Hardox® 450 base plate with Chromium Carbide Overlay Wire. Because of the Hardox® 450 base provides harder support on overlay, the Duroxite® 101 screens ran consistently 200 hours.
