Wear Applications

High performance materials for wear applications

voestalpine high performance tool steels are ideal for mining components prone to extreme abrasive wear. Due to their exceptional hardness, toughness, and wear resistance, our steels can endure harshest mining conditions, extending the lifespan of tools and equipment. Their advanced alloy compositions and heat treatments make them suitable for a range of applications, with needing to upgrade to expensive Tungsten Carbide alternatives.

Performance where it counts

Our tool steels have a proven track record in the mining industry and are suitable for many wear component applications including:

  • Spreaders
  • Wear Plates
  • Conveyor Systems
  • Sizing Systems

This is only a small selection of the applications where tools steels can be a game changer for your wear applications. If you have an idea for a project or there an existing problem needing a solution, contact you local voestalpine High Performance Metals technical team using the form below.
