Quick Main Shaft Selection Guide
| Your Application | Recommended Grade | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Small-medium cone (HP200-400), quarry duty, moderate ore | 42CrMo Forged + Q+T | Industry standard for this class; excellent fatigue strength at moderate cost |
| Large cone (HP500-800), hard rock or tramp metal risk | 40CrNiMo Forged + Q+T | Ni addition increases impact toughness for large diameter shafts; handles occasional tramp metal |
| Mining cone (MP series), continuous operation, extreme duty | 34CrNiMo6 Forged + Q+T | Maximum fatigue strength and toughness; European premium grade for mission-critical shafts |
| Sandvik CH/CS series, standard quarry or mining | Match OEM spec (42CrMo to 34CrNiMo6) | Sandvik shafts follow similar sizing logic to Metso; select by shaft diameter and duty |
| Budget replacement, light duty, low operating hours | ZG40Cr Cast + Normalized | Lower cost alternative; acceptable for low-utilization crushers but shorter service life expected |

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about our crusher wear parts
We offer four material families tailored to different working conditions:
| Material Series | Grades | Hardness | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| High Manganese Steel | Mn13, Mn13Cr2, Mn18Cr2 | HB 200-260 (work-hardens to HB 400-600) | Medium to high impact crushing |
| High Chromium Cast Iron | Cr20, Cr26, Cr15Mo3 | HRC 58-63 | Low impact, high abrasion; fine crushing, sand making |
| Bi-Metallic Composite | Bimetal-A / B / C | HRC 58-68 (working layer) | Combined impact + abrasion; maximum service life |
| Alloy Steel | ZG-Mn13CrMo, Martensitic | HB 300-500 | Balanced toughness and wear resistance |
