In the construction industry, wear usually occurs on backhoe buckets and dozer blades. The use of premium friction-resistant materials allows significant savings to be made by extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs.
Hardox Wearparts centers specialize in custom-made wear parts from Hardox® wear plate and Toolox® engineering and tool steels, which are quenched and tempered steel grades. Duroxite® can also be used for wear situations where coating products are more suitable.
High product quality ripper picks used for ground preparation pays off. The pickaxe is susceptible to 90⁰ turns by inexperienced drivers and can break easily. Traditionally, pickaxes are forged from high alloy steel. They cannot reach the same toughness level as quenched and tempered Hardox® and Strenx®. Hardox® HiTuf and Strenx® 700 pickaxes are tough and proven to be extremely resistant to breakage.
