HX900 is a material that combines the wear resistance of cemented carbide with the shock resistance, ductility and forming capability of nodular iron.
The parts are small and lightweight, making them easy to store and handle, but they are said to last up to five times longer than white iron and 20 times longer than quenched steel, resulting in lower maintenance costs and fewer maintenance stops.
The segments are available as buttons, bars and runners and can be easily welded via a steel plate base to maintain the original condition of crushers, loader buckets, chutes, excavators, rock box edges and weld-on hammer tips.
