Steel Billets for Earth Moving Machinery

Earth moving machines are heavy and shock loaded. Forged pins, bushings, gears and track parts need strength and wear resistance.

Typical components

A widely used chrome-moly steel with good hardenability, toughness and fatigue strength in the quenched and tempered condition.

A high strength, deep hardening steel with very good toughness, used where heavy sections must harden right through.

A low carbon Ni-Cr-Mo steel that carburises to a hard surface over a tough core.

A higher carbon grade for components needing more strength and wear resistance than EN8 allows.

A manganese-chromium case hardening grade used for automotive and industrial gears.

Case hardening grades give a hard surface over a tough core for pins and gears.

Check the billet size chart for sections and weight per metre, and use the weight calculator for any length.
