Nestled in the heart of Addis Ababa, Desta Steel has built a reputation for strength and reliability, proudly standing as your trusted local manufacturer and supplier. We understand that ambitious projects demand materials of exceptional quality, which is why we are pleased to introduce our Armour 500 sheet and plates. This high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel is engineered to tackle the most challenging industrial environments, offering unparalleled durability for builders, fabricators, and innovators across Ethiopia who are shaping the nation’s future.
The composition of Armour 500 is precisely engineered to achieve its remarkable toughness, primarily through carefully balanced levels of carbon and other alloying elements. This specific formulation grants it outstanding mechanical properties, including a minimum Brinell hardness of 500, which directly translates into superior resistance to abrasive wear and impact. This means the material maintains its structural integrity far longer than conventional steel, significantly reducing maintenance needs and extending the service life of any equipment or structure it becomes a part of.
