Application of Wear resistant Steel NM400 in Earthmoving Machinery

Wear resistant steel NM400 has a wide range of applications in earthmoving machinery, mainly including the following aspects: 

1、 Excavator Bucket: The excavator bucket is a component that comes into direct contact with materials such as soil and rock, and bears enormous frictional and impact forces. The bucket made of NM400 wear-resistant steel has extremely high hardness and strength,which can effectively resist wear and deformation. When excavating hard rocks, ores, and other materials, the NM400 wear-resistant steel bucket can maintain a longer service life, reduce the frequency of bucket replacement, and improve work efficiency. 

Stick: The stick is subjected to various stresses such as tension, compression, and bending during excavation. The high strength and good toughness of NM400 wear-resistant steel enable it to withstand these stresses while resisting wear. Using NM400 wear-resistant steel to make the boom can extend its service life and reduce maintenance costs.

Track shoes: The track shoes of excavators constantly rub against the ground during walking, especially in harsh terrain conditions where wear is more severe. The track shoes made of NM400 wear-resistant steel have excellent wear resistance and impact resistance, which can adapt to various complex terrains and improve the passability and stability of excavators. 

2、 Loader Bucket: The loader bucket is used to load and transport various materials, such as sand, stones, coal, etc. The NM400 wear-resistant steel bucket can withstand the friction and impact of materials, reducing wear and deformation. In high-intensity loading operations, the NM400 wear-resistant steel bucket can improve the efficiency of the loader and reduce maintenance costs. Boom: The boom is a critical component of a loader that lifts and lowers the bucket, bearing significant loads and stresses. The high strength and good toughness of NM400 wear-resistant steel enable it to withstand these loads and stresses while resisting wear. Using NM400 wear-resistant steel to make the boom can extend its service life and improve the reliability of the loader.

3、 Bulldozer Bulldozer shovel: The bulldozer shovel comes into direct contact with soil, sand, and other materials during the bulldozing operation, and bears enormous frictional and impact forces. The NM400 wear-resistant steel bulldozer has extremely high hardness and strength, which can effectively resist wear and deformation. In bulldozing operations, the NM400 wear-resistant steel bulldozer can maintain a long service life and improve the efficiency of bulldozers.
