Bradken Front Idlers

Specifications

• Bradken Front Idlers are designed with an induction-hardened roller path that provides excellent wear resistance.
• They are made with a high-strength proprietary Bradken induction-hardening alloy and a hardened depth of typically 15-20 mm.
• The use of an engineered alloy with a greater depth and stringent process control minimizes stress concentration within the transition zone.
• The idlers feature AISI 4340 axles with ground, induction-hardened running surfaces, which prevent galling and maximize resistance to impact loading.
• Cross-hatched lubrication grooves in the idler's bushes eliminate axle flats that can cause premature internal wear and increase their typical life expectancy.
