BRINAR® Steel Applications
BRINAR® wear-resistant steel is used in the world's most demanding industrial sectors. From open-pit mining to rock crushers, every application has an optimised BRINAR® grade.
Why use BRINAR® in industrial applications?
Lower total operating cost
Replacing structural steel with BRINAR® can multiply component service life by 3 to 5, reducing maintenance downtime frequency and spare parts consumption.
Structural weight reduction
Using thinner plates thanks to higher hardness reduces the total equipment weight, improving energy efficiency and useful payload capacity.
Certified German quality
BRINAR® is manufactured in Ilsenburg, Germany, under Salzgitter Group standards with exhaustive quality control and inspection certificates per EN 10204.
Sectors and applications
Mining Equipment
BRINAR® plates protect critical mining machinery components exposed to severe abrasion and impact loads in underground and open-pit environments.
Heavy Machinery
High-demand industrial equipment such as excavators, loaders and bulldozers benefit from BRINAR® steel durability to extend operational service life.
Dipper Shovel
Dipper shovels are exposed to extreme abrasion and impact when excavating hard ore. BRINAR® significantly extends their service life.
Dump Truck Body
Dump truck bodies in mining suffer continuous wear from ore loading and unloading. BRINAR® steel reduces maintenance requirements and total weight.
Rock Crushers
Jaw, cone and impact crushers operate under extreme wear conditions. BRINAR® 500 offers maximum resistance for highly abrasive minerals.
Drill Equipment
Hard rock drilling equipment requires high-hardness components to resist constant wear. BRINAR® 500 is the optimal choice for these applications.
