Abrasion resistant steel

I have a project that requires a high abrasion resistant sheet material. It must be around .120" thick/11ga. Currently we use a tempered stainless steel. There are a couple of bends on the item as well. What other materials can offer good abrasion resistance but still be available in sheet? I know AR250/400/500 etc... are all available, but primarily they are sold in plate form. Any suggestions would be welcome.
