Ground-to-Grade Steel Selector
Pick the ground you dig and see the recommended steel grade for the bucket shell and wear zones, with Brinell hardness (HBW) and expected wear life against a Hardox 400 baseline.

Spec Honesty Note
A “HB450” stamp is not automatically genuine Hardox — through-thickness / core hardness drives real wear life. Ask for the mill certificate and verify hardness through the plate cross-section, not just at the surface.
Wear bar is scaled to a 0–200% window. Brinell figures: Hardox 400 = 400 HBW nom (370–430) · Hardox 450 = 450 nom (425–475) · Hardox 500 = 500 nom (470–530 HBW, plate ≤32 mm). AR400 / AR450 = wear strips & side cutters · T-1 / A514 = lip / cutting edge plate (strength, not abrasion).
Payment protected by staged delivery proof
