With the same abrasion and impact resistance as classic wear bars, the KVX curved wear bars have been very successful in Norway. They ensure a better bucket side protection and generate less resistance when digging than staggered heel shrouds.
All KVX curved wear bars are made from quality Sagitta® steel. Sagitta® features a complex blend of alloying elements which enhance its structural properties after hardening.
They can be produced to fit the shape of your bucket whatever its volume:
KVX produces some special curved wear bars, called “Banana bars”, for mining excavators. We meet a great success with a customer who has multiplied the lifetime of wear bars by three:
The design has been made for a PC8000 bucket in operation. KVX is working on other alternatives for PC7000 and other mining machines. The design must be adjusted in order to fit perfectly with the shape of your bucket (radius, thickness, bill of material…).
