The wear challenge
Dredger cutters and wear parts face extreme sliding abrasion from sand, gravel, and seabed material. Hardox rebuilds return cutters and dredging components to spec without waiting for a full replacement assembly.
Dredging combines wet abrasive flow with high sliding wear on cutter teeth, lips, and pipe linings. SSAB cites Hardox tubes and pipes for transporting abrasive slurry, sand, and gravel, with grades 400 and 500 for extended service in dredging equipment.
Recommended Hardox grades
Grade selection depends on abrasive material, impact, and operating conditions. Claims below are from SSAB published material.
- Hardox 500
- Cutter rebuilds and high-abrasion wear surfaces
- Hardox 500 Tuf
- Structural cutter components and lips
- Hardox 600
- Extreme abrasion zones on cutting heads
