Material Description:
- High strength, ultra wear resistant steel used in body armor and shooting targets
- Hardened steel is difficult to machine, is typically only used for Waterjet parts
- Typically used for weapons due to it's high strength, toughness, and relatively high hardness
- Anecdotal experience finds that AR500 typically bends before it fractures
