Road construction requires a wide variety of equipment, from trucks that transport heavy materials over long distances to machines that withstand intense wear while earthmoving. The unique properties of wear-resistant steel grades increase efficiency, reduce maintenance costs and minimize the risk of wear-related failures.
In response to road construction challenges, Hardox Wearparts centers specialize in custom-made wear parts from Hardox® wear plate and Toolox® engineering and tool steels from the quenched and tempered steel grades. In some wear situations where coating products are more suitable, centers will recommend Duroxite®.
Hardox Wearparts provides tipper body linings for the transport of crushed stone, gravel and sand. Other typical parts are blades for motor graders/dozers, rim blades for excavator buckets and gauge plates for pavers.
The floor plate made of Hardox® 500 for an asphalt paver increased its service life by over 30% compared to the previous material.
