Thanks for the suggestions. Our customer has elected to stay with the same general construction they have with the AR400 plate when comparing costs and unknows. Very useful forum, thanks
We are in the process of replacing a horizontal drag chain conveyor handling (wet/damp) coal. Presently lined with AR400 plate 3/8 thick. Ambient outdoor temperature. Anyone have any alternate suggetions in liew of this material? Any known stainless alloys that would survive this application...
