The wear challenge
Grain hoppers and discharge chutes see sliding abrasion from bulk grain and fines at every load cycle. Hardox hopper liners and rebuilds restore flow geometry and extend life between field replacements.
Agricultural bulk handling combines mechanical wear with dust and, in some environments, corrosive exposure. SSAB cites Hardox for hoppers, chutes, and transport equipment, with HiAce where corrosion accelerates wear.
Recommended Hardox grades
Grade selection depends on abrasive material, impact, and operating conditions. Claims below are from SSAB published material.
- Hardox 500 Tuf
- Hopper bodies and structural discharge surfaces
- Hardox 450
- Sliding wear liners at discharge points
- Hardox HiAce
- Corrosive or humid storage environments
