Product Description

Armoured steel casting is crucial for the combat vehicles MBT Arjun, BMP II, T-72, and T-90, providing structural integrity and ballistic protection. For these military applications, cast armor is valued for its ability to create complex shapes, which is especially useful for forming the curved surfaces of turrets and hulls that help deflect incoming rounds.

Features/Roles/Variants of the product
Casting allows for the production of armor components with intricate and curved shapes, such as turrets and hulls. This design can improve ballistic resistance by increasing the chance of deflection.
The steel is specially alloyed and heat-treated to balance hardness (to resist penetration) with toughness (to prevent shattering from impact). Electro-Slag Remelted (ESR) steel is often used for this purpose due to its superior metallurgical quality.
Most modern tank armor, including cast components, is not monolithic. Instead, it features a sandwich structure, such as that found in India's indigenously developed Kanchan armor used on the Arjun MBT.
This composite structure uses layers of different materials, like high-hardness steel and ceramics, to defeat various types of anti-tank rounds.
