Abstract

Establishing which metallic materials are suitable to be used for the protection of operators and machinery, when subjected to stress impact in the drilling industry, for surface exploitation, mines and quarries, is a complex process. Due to the harsh operating conditions, a careful evaluation of the various materials used is of utmost importance. This paper addresses the issues relating to the methodology of determining the appropriate homogenous materials to be used, based on a correspondence between their characteristics and applications. Starting with a list of specific operating conditions, one has established a set of requirements and has assessed the market; the recommended materials for the job are alloy steels and aluminum alloys.
