STEEL GRINDING RODS

Length: 2m to 6m

Low wear, unique chemical composition, high hardness of 45HRC to 55HRC, and strong toughness.

The wear resistant effect of the new-type alloy wear resistant steel grinding rod is 1.5 to 2 times stronger than that of
the rolled steel bar.

Marked by excellent wear resistant property, the product can save a lot of cost for the customer.
It is manufactured by using the latest production method.

The dimension and the specification can be adjusted in accordance with the requirements of the customers.

The largely improved flexibility can down the unnecessary waste.

Serve for longer time, economize the production cost and mitigate the labor intensity of the workers.

Moreover, it eliminates the need for stopping the rod mill to add the new steel grinding rod every day,
which is conducive to largely enhancing the productivity.
