Wear resistant steel generally has a higher carbon content and also contains manganese, chromium, nickel, vanadium, and boron. These alloying elements increase the hardness and the ductility. These elements also have a positive effect on corrosion resistance, to a limited degree. There is a rapid growth in real estate, mining, and automobile industries which in turn creates a demand for wear resistant steel resulting in wear resistant steel market expansion.
