NG ATTACHMENTS | EXCAVATOR BUCKET WEAR PARTS
Hardox Bucket Segment for Excavators
NG Attachments manufactures heavy-duty bucket segments for excavator buckets, loader buckets, rock buckets, quarry buckets and mining buckets using wear-resistant steel options such as Hardox, Borox and equivalent high-strength abrasion-resistant steel grades.Designed for severe-duty working conditions, NG bucket segments protect the bucket lip, cutting edge area and wear zones against impact, abrasion and material flow damage in quarry, mining, demolition, recycling, road construction and heavy excavation applications.
Wear Resistant Bucket Protection
Heavy-Duty Bucket Segments Manufactured from Hardox and Borox Steel
Bucket segments are critical wear parts used on excavator and loader buckets to improve edge protection, increase service life and reduce structural wear on the bucket body. In harsh job sites, standard mild steel segments may wear quickly, especially when working with rock, abrasive soil, gravel, limestone, basalt, demolition debris or recycled material.NG Attachments produces custom bucket segments according to bucket width, edge thickness, tooth-adapter layout, bolt hole pattern, working application and customer requirements. Depending on the project, NG can use Hardox 450, Hardox 500, Borox wear-resistant steel or equivalent abrasion-resistant steel grades.
Hardox Bucket Segments
High wear resistance for excavator buckets, loader buckets, rock buckets and severe-duty bucket applications requiring long service life.Borox Bucket Segments
Borox and equivalent boron steel options for impact and abrasion resistance in construction, quarry and industrial material handling applications.Custom Segment Production

Material Selection
Hardox, Borox and Wear-Resistant Steel Options
Bucket segment performance depends heavily on material selection. A segment working in abrasive sand, limestone, granite, basalt, demolition concrete or scrap handling may require different steel hardness, impact resistance and thickness.
| Material Option | Common Use | Typical Advantage | Recommended Applications | Technical Notes | SEO Keywords |
|---|
| Hardox 450 | Heavy-duty bucket segments and wear plates | Balanced hardness, wear resistance and weldability | Excavator buckets, loader buckets, rock buckets, quarry buckets | Suitable for many bucket wear protection applications where both toughness and abrasion resistance are needed | Hardox 450 bucket segment, Hardox bucket wear part |
| Hardox 500 | High-abrasion bucket segments | Higher hardness for stronger wear resistance | Quarry, mining, abrasive aggregate, severe material flow zones | Requires correct cutting, drilling, welding and handling procedures due to higher hardness | Hardox 500 bucket segment, high wear bucket segment |
| Borox Steel | Boron steel wear segment and cutting edge parts | Good wear resistance and cost-effective heavy-duty performance | Construction, road work, loader buckets, general earthmoving and quarry support | Can be selected according to application, thickness and required hardness level | Borox bucket segment, Borox wear part, boron steel segment |
| Equivalent Wear-Resistant Steel | Alternative abrasion-resistant steel grades | Flexible supply according to availability and project budget | Custom buckets, spare parts, replacement segments and repair components | Material certificate and hardness requirement can be agreed before production | wear resistant bucket segment, AR steel bucket segment |
| High-Strength Structural Steel | Support plates and reinforcement components | Good structural strength for non-primary wear areas | Bucket reinforcement, brackets, support zones and welded structures | Can be combined with Hardox or Borox wear plates in bucket construction | heavy duty bucket reinforcement, bucket wear protection plate |
Professional Recommendation
For bucket segments working directly against abrasive material, NG recommends selecting the steel grade according to the real working environment. Hardox 450 is a strong balanced option for many heavy-duty buckets, while Hardox 500 or equivalent high-hardness wear steel may be preferred for severe abrasive applications. Borox and equivalent boron steel can also be evaluated for cost-effective wear protection.Machine and Bucket Compatibility
Compatible Excavator and Loader Bucket Applications
NG bucket segments can be designed for a wide range of machine classes and bucket types. The segment shape, thickness and hole pattern must be matched with the bucket structure and working duty level.
