Types and material selection of wear-resistant steel
Wear-resistant steel is a special steel with high wear resistance. It is generally used to manufacture mechanical parts that need to resist wear, such as excavators, mining machinery, slag trucks, etc. At present, there are many types of wear-resistant steels that are common in the market. Let’s take a look at the common types and material selection of wear-resistant steels.

1. Ultra-high strength wear-resistant steel
Ultra-high-strength wear-resistant steel is a kind of wear-resistant steel with high strength and high hardness, and its hardness can reach 600-700HBW. This steel has excellent wear resistance, impact resistance and crack resistance, and is widely used in mining, construction, muck trucks and other fields.
2. Medium carbon wear-resistant steel
Medium carbon wear-resistant steel is a medium carbon steel whose hardness can reach 400-600HBW. This steel has excellent wear resistance and toughness, and is suitable for manufacturing mechanical parts such as excavators, loaders, and bulldozers.

4. Cast wear-resistant steel
Cast wear-resistant steel is a kind of cast steel, its hardness can reach 300-400HBW. This kind of steel has excellent wear resistance and impact resistance, and is suitable for manufacturing mining machinery, cement machinery, metallurgical machinery, etc.
When choosing wear-resistant steel, it needs to be selected according to the specific use environment and requirements. Generally speaking, wear-resistant steel with higher hardness is more suitable for occasions with strong wear resistance, but for occasions with higher requirements for impact resistance and toughness, it is necessary to choose wear-resistant steel with better toughness. In addition, factors such as cost and processing performance need to be considered, and the most suitable wear-resistant steel should be selected after comprehensive consideration.
In short, wear-resistant steel is a very important special steel with a wide range of applications. When choosing wear-resistant steel, it is necessary to choose according to the specific use environment and requirements. Only by choosing the most suitable wear-resistant steel can it play its greatest role.
