Forged & Machined Components
Industrial applications face significant wear challenges due to harsh operating conditions. Our abrasion resistant, alloy steel and boiler quality plates offer the best solutions for durability and longevity.
The wear problem
Components often suffer from sliding abrasion as constant friction leads to surface degradation. The first failures typically occur at contact points where wear mechanisms are most aggressive, resulting in compromised operational efficiency.
Recommended plate by component
| Component | Grade | Thickness | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gear shafts | K02100 | 10-20 | Excellent wear resistance enhances longevity. |
| Crushing blades | K02401 | 15-25 | Extended service life in high-impact applications. |
| Bushing liners | S31600 | 5-15 | Superior corrosion resistance improves reliability. |
| Wear plates | N06625 | 8-12 | Increased toughness ensures better performance in abrasive conditions. |
| Roller components | S34700 | 12-18 | Enhanced hardness increases wear life under dynamic stress. |
Selecting the right plate
Assess operational conditions
Understand the wear factors specific to your environment.
Choose the right grade
Select alloy grades that meet your wear resistance and strength requirements.
Opt for optimal thickness
Thickness variation can impact the component’s durability and performance.
Regular maintenance checks
Implement routine inspections to mitigate wear and prolong component life.
Questions engineers ask
What is abrasion resistance?
Abrasion resistance refers to a material’s ability to withstand mechanical wear and tear. Choosing the right grade can significantly increase the lifespan of your components.
How do I choose the appropriate grade?
Select grades based on your operational exposure and handling requirements. Each grade offers unique benefits tailored for specific wear mechanisms.
What thickness should I select?
Thickness choice depends on the application and the expected wear conditions. Thicker materials generally offer better wear resistance.
How often should I replace worn parts?
Replace components when they show signs of significant wear. Regular monitoring can help identify when maintenance or replacements are needed.
