Common Applications of Wear Resistant Steel Plates

Wear-resistant steel plates are used to protect heavy machinery and structures from abrasion and impact in industries like mining, construction, and material handling, lining buckets, chutes, hoppers, and crushers; they also find use in cement, agriculture, and even some industrial tools, significantly extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs. 

Key Applications by Industry:

  • Mining & Construction:
    • Bucket liners, excavator parts, rock breakers, bulldozer blades.
    • Chutes, hoppers, and liners in crushers and screens.
  • Material Handling:
    • Lining for conveyors, chutes, and transfer points for bulk materials.
  • Cement Industry:
    • Components in crushing, grinding, and handling processes.
  • Agriculture:
    • Tillage and seeding equipment parts.
  • Industrial Equipment:
    • Liners for shot blasting equipment.
    • Components in industrial furnaces and waste incinerators (heat-resistant types). 

Common Components Protected:

  • Liners: For truck beds, railcars, and equipment interiors.
  • Cutting Edges: Blades and teeth on earthmoving equipment.
  • Impact Surfaces: Areas subjected to heavy impacts from falling materials. 

Benefits:

  • Extended Equipment Life: Protects vulnerable components from rapid wear.
  • Reduced Downtime & Costs: Less frequent replacement and maintenance.
  • Improved Efficiency: Maintains equipment performance longer.
