A Bucket Side Wear Plate is a protective part used to protect the part of the bucket which is the primary contact point with the ground or material being excavated. This wear plate, made from a hard, abrasion-resistant material like hardened steel, is welded to the specific segment of the bucket's outer surface. It can be replaced when they get worn out, instead of having to replace the entire bucket.Attributes:• Hardened to Rockwell C scale hardness of C35 to withstand high level of shear force without deformation • Withstands high levels of stress and strainApplications:A Bucket Side Wear Plate protects the outer surface of the buckets such as general-purpose buckets and hoe buckets from abrasion caused by contact with the ground, rocks, and other materials. It serves as a sacrificial layer, absorbing the wear and reducing damage to the bucket's structural components.
