Wear Resistant Steel Plates for Material Handling Systems

Why Material Handling Equipment Needs Specialized Wear Plates

Material handling systems face relentless wear due to continuous loading, unloading, and abrasive material flow — especially in bulk industries like cement, mining, fertilizer, steel plants, and power generation. The high-speed impact of coal, ore, grains, and aggregates causes traditional mild steel liners to fail prematurely. That’s where wear resistant steel plates are critical.

At Hindustan Steel Corporation, we manufacture and stock HIND HARD and NM Series plates specifically engineered to protect hoppers, chutes, bins, and conveyors. These plates reduce component breakdown, improve throughput, and extend equipment service life — minimizing unscheduled shutdowns and maintenance costs.

Where Are These Plates Used in Material Handling?

Component Suitable Grades
Conveyor Transfer Chutes NM400 / AR400 / AR450
Bucket Elevator Liners HIND HARD 500 / NM500
Rotary Feeders & Paddle Mixers AR500 / CCO / HIND HARD 600
Transfer Points / Loading Zones AR450 / NM500
Silos, Bins & Hoppers HIND HARD 400 / NM400
