NLMK Group, an international metallurgical company, supplied Quard 450 wear-resistant steel manufactured by NLMK Clabecq to TPK Phoenix, which manufactures special equipment based on KAMAZ, MAZ, Ural, Isuzu chassis. The unique wear-resistant properties of steel of this grade allow more than three times increase the service life of individual components of special equipment.
Phoenix uses Quard 450 steel in the production of sides of the bodies of loading equipment. Side panels often come into contact with the load, so they can quickly wear out. Quard 450 steel provides a high level of wear resistance and resistance to shock loads due to the optimal combination of hardness and toughness.
“The use of Quard wear-resistant steel can significantly increase the service life of excavators, dump trucks, bulldozers and other special equipment compared to ordinary steel grades. The company plans to develop the product and introduce new brands of wear-resistant rolled products into production for domestic and foreign customers, ”commented Ilya Gushchin, Vice President of Sales at NLMK Group.
