General Product Description

The ballistic protection steel with extra-high hardness.

Ramor® 550 is a ballistic protection steel of extra-high hardness, available in thicknesses of 3.0 ‑ 15.0 mm (0.118‑0.591″) and hardnesses of 540‑600 HBW.

Ramor® 550 is available as cut-to-length sheet in thicknesses of 3.0 ‑ 6.0 mm (0.118‑0.236″) and as plate in thicknesses of 6.0 ‑ 15.0 mm (0.236‑0.591″). Delivered in quenched condition, Ramor® 550 is not intended for further heat treatment.
